Informative insights into the making of a president
Review of The Making of FDR: A Story of Stephen T.Early, America's First Modern Press Secretary, by Linda Lotridge Levin
Abstract
The Making of FDR argues that the image of US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt as a modern, charismatic, and politically astute leader was 'made' in a significant way by his talented but non-intellectual press secretary, Stephen Early. The author, journalist Linda Lotridge Levin, clearly makes the case that Early played a crucial role in the Roosevelt presidency that lasted from 1932 until his death in 1945.
