Editorial Reviews

Review
Geraldine Ferraro Steve Neal, along with his co-writers, Eleanor and Harry, has provided a fast-moving, inside look at the historic events that marked the almost twenty years from President Roosevelt's death to that of his wife. The exchange of letters reveals not only Mrs. Roosevelt's incredible ability to deal with complex issues but the respect with which President Truman treated her political and policy views. "Eleanor and Harry" makes us grateful and nostalgic for the old days of letter writing. You don't have to be a Democrat to love it!

Synopsis
Previously unpublished correspondence between Harry S. Truman and Eleanor Roosevelt offers insight into their sometimes turbulent friendship as it occurred against a backdrop of the Cold War and the rebuilding of postwar Europe.
