There is so much to be said about Eleanor Roosevelt.
A tireless woman,very smart that helped her husband FDR during his presidency and his illness with polio.
After WWII she visited many hospitals of wounded service men .
After she was widowed she was a member of the UN delegation on Human Rights.
She traveled more that any other First Lady

A collection of writings both about and by Eleanor Roosevelt. It falls short as a biographical work as there are gaps in time and some major life events are not included but merely alluded to.
