“From the onset of polio in 1921 until his death, Franklin, his family, his inner circle of advisers, and teams of physicians assiduously disguised the state of his health, promoting the fantasy of a robust leader who was always in excel- lent physical condition for a man his age.

These deceptions still dominate the present-day narrative of Franklin’s health, especially so in his later years.”
