Over a half-century after the death of Roosevelt the debate on his
presidency and the New Deal remains vibrant, for in many ways he
created the modern presidency and he remains a giant of American
political history. This book, specifically designed for sixth-form
and undergraduate use, serves as an essential introduction to his
domestic policy during his tenure from the struggles of the
Depression to the outbreak of the Second World War. Incorporating
archival discoveries at the Roosevelt Presidential Library, this
documentary collection focuses on the debates and controversies
surrounding the implementation and practice of New Deal policies.
It highlights the meanings, flaws and outcomes of Roosevelt's
attempts to refashion American society. With an extensive
contextualising introduction, the book reproduces extracts from a
variety of sources including Government records, public addresses
and speeches and the private papers of Roosevelt and some of his
closest associates. -- .
