Covering an eventful period in Herbert Hoover's career--and, more
specifically, his life as a political pugilist from 1933 to
1955--this previously unknown memoir was composed and revised by
the 31st president during the 1940s and 1950s--and then,
surprisingly, set aside. This work recounts Hoover's family life
after March 4, 1933, his myriad philanthropic interests, and, most
of all, his unrelenting "crusade against collectivism" in American
life. Aside from its often feisty account of Hoover's political
activities during the Roosevelt and Truman eras, and its window on
Hoover's private life and campaigns for good causes, "The Crusade
Years" invites readers to reflect on the factors that made his
extraordinarily fruitful postpresidential years possible. The pages
of this memoir recount the story of Hoover's later life, his
abiding political philosophy, and his vision of the nation that
gave him the opportunity for service. This is, in short, a
remarkable saga told in the former president's own words and in his
own way that will appeal as much to professional historians and
political scientists as it will lay readers interested in history.
