“THOSE ANGRY DAYS,” BY LYNNE OLSON.

WARNING: If you are a fan of President Franklin D. Roosevelt you might not want to read this magnificent book?

*If you are someone who is a Charles Lindbergh fan you might not want to read this book?

*If you think the politicians of today are obsessed with poll numbers, you might seriously want to read this book and see how obsessed President Roosevelt was with poll numbers, and how this obsession almost left half the world under the control of Hitler.

*If you don’t know who Wendell Willkie is you should read this book. He was the Republican candidate who ran against President Roosevelt in 1940, and going against his party’s wishes, called for the United States to get behind Great Britain and prepare itself for the inevitable entrance of the U.S. into the the war.

*If you think that anti-Semitism is at a fever pitch in America today, you should read this book and find out how bad it was before the war?

*If you are a fan of democracy you need to read this book because, outside of the Vietnam area, I don’t think democracy has shined any brighter than the pre- World War 2 years in America.

*And finally if you are a fan of history and the pre- World War 2 era this is a book for you. One of the best I have ever read.
