it was amazing

Loved it. This part of US History has always particularly interested me, thanks to Miss Kohler, my exceptional high school history teacher. Especially interesting after recently seeing "The King's Speech", was the account Eleanor Roosevelt writes of the King and Queen visiting Washington, and her visit with them during WWII. Also evident is Mrs. Roosevelt's sense of humor when she writes this of some official dinner..."after dinner, which was not a hilarious meal, and during which I made valiant attempts at conversation..." Amazing that I picked this book up for free on a library giveaway shelf. Shelved above were old VHS tapes priced at $1 each. Next up Doris Kearns Goodwin's book about the Roosevelts.
