Revival: Roosevelt and His America (1933)

by Bernard Fay

Overview

President Roosevelt gave an opportunity to study American energy and initiative and its freedom from all formulas and methods. During the eventful months of 1933 the President and the people of the United States proved that they were able to discard the past entirely – everything, even the most valuable and cherished tradition – to keep life and activity in the country, to keep the nation alive, working and going ahead.
