Reviews
On Sep 24 2014, a reader said:
Frank Freidel's book ranks as one of the best single-volume biographies of Franklin Roosevelt. While the book covers the span of Roosevelt's life, from his privileged early years growing up in upstate New York to his work establishing a clinic for people suffering from polio, Freidel's main focus is on Roosevelt's political career, Here the presidency takes center stage, as Freidel depicts Roosevelt as a cautious leader who often pursued contradictory policies in an effort to appeal to a broad range of constituencies. Though the prose is workmanlike, Freidel succeeds in summarizing the complex political maneuverings Roosevelt undertook in pursuit of his overall goals. All of this makes for a useful study of the 32nd.president, one that can still be read for its balanced, informative look at Roosevelt's life and career/

Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children\'s paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost \"in the stacks\" for as long as they wish.
