Franklin and Missy
Torbjorn Sirevag
Most historians have concluded that Roosevelt (FDR) was too sick to influence the nomination of Harry Truman as VP in 1944. By contrast, this very intimate portrait/self-portrait of FDR by a Norwegian historian-novelist shows Roosevelt zestfully in charge. Based on new resources, this book also records the love and distress of his old assistant/intimate companion Missy LeHand after a stroke had forced her to return to her native Boston three years earlier. Their memories of past and present somehow merge in the novel as FDR´s train secretly crosses the USA from Washington DC to California at the very moment when the Democrats are headed for the 1944 party convention at Chicago.
