My review: Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Champion of Freedom by Conrad Black

Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Champion of FreedomFranklin Delano Roosevelt: Champion of Freedom by Conrad Black

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



This biography of FDR is, by far, the most comprehensive I have read to date. At 1,280 pages, it is not a short read. However, the time it takes to read it is more than made up for by the depth of exploration of FDR the man. His character and personality shine through. This is not a glossy portrait with no flaws. I felt as though I saw more of a complete characterization of FDR, including his extraordinary achievements as well as his flaws. It was a great read.
