Roosevelt and Hopkins
Roosevelt and Hopkins won the 1949 Pulitzer Prize and the 1949 Bancroft Prize. Originally published in 1948, this book offers a rare insight into the workings of FDR's wartime diplomacy. It is a classic account of FDR's foreign policy during World War II and examines how Harry Hopkins, his friend and confidant, became the president's "point man" with Stalin, Churchill, de Gaulle, and other allied leaders. The inside history of America's inevitable wartime rise as a great power, written in a wonderfully readable prose by White House speechwriter and prize-winning playwright Robert Sherwood, this biography is richly illustrated throughout.
