In Young Mr. Roosevelt, preeminent historian Stanley Weintraub examines Franklin Delano Roosevelt's political and wartime apprenticeship, where he learned the ropes in politics, war, and love. Told against the backdrop of America's first reluctant entry into world war, its tentative efforts to build a modern navy, Washington's gossip-ridden society (led flamboyantly by Theodore Roosevelt's eldest daughter, Alice), and the nation's bursting-at-the-seams economy, Weintraub probes the influences on the young and politically ambitious FDR.
