Description
The central volume in the definitive biography of America's most important First Lady. "Engrossing" (Boston Globe).
The captivating second volume of this Eleanor Roosevelt biography covers tumultuous era of the Great Depression, the New Deal, and the gathering storms of World War II, the years of the Roosevelts' greatest challenges and finest achievements. In her remarkably engaging narrative, Cook gives us the complete Eleanor Roosevelt - an adventurous, romantic woman, a devoted wife and mother, and a visionary policymaker and social activist who often took unpopular stands, counter to her husband's policies, especially on issues such as racial justice and women's rights. A biography of scholarship and daring, it is a book for all listeners of American history.

Stimulating, provocative, well-researched
A solid examination of Eleanor Roosevelt's life from the beginning of FDR's first administration until the beginning of his third term. Kept my interest riveted throughout and makes me eager to the next volume.

Detailed, and fascinating
Eleanor Roosevelt was remarkable, and her story is important and complex. The partnership she had with her husband was unique, and played on the strengths of each.

Fantastic
This gives such great insight into the zeitgeist of the 30s, attitudes local and international, while showing ER’s evolution in reaction.

Good Content/ Poor Delivery
I very much enjoy listening to biographies and I love history. Eleanor Roosevelt is a woman who in todays world would very likely have become a presidents. This has a lot of content and further information than the first book. Both are read by Kate Reading and I do not like the style of the reading. The sound is snobbish and aristocratic. I lose focus on the content and draw judgements about the person reading the book. This takes me away from valuing the book even more. It would be great if Eleanors stories of her life were read by a woman or even multiple women with differing backgrounds. Somehow, when I think of Eleanor, there is a feel of aristocracy simply due to her background and then, there is the boisterous "I am coming into my own..." It helps a story come to life if the reader could convey this essence.
