Franklin D. Roosevelt, America's longest serving president, is considered one of the most important political figures of the 20th century. This book assesses his personality and his political and economic policies in war and peace.

Twentieth-Century America provides a comprehensive analysis of the changes and continuities in the US political system from 1900 to 2000, a period of unprecedented growth and power in US history, though one that was also punctuated by crises and division.

Focusing on the public affairs of America, Michael Heale introduces the reader to the major changes which governed life in the sixties.
