Eleanor shines again in this work

Her insights in a chronological order. Sounds boring, right? Not the case at all. The editor, Don Wigal, has done a masterful job of bringing this woman to life once more (are you listening, Hilary?) in a wonderful and flowing way.

For those who might not remember the era, Don paints a large backdrop for you so that everyone can appreciate the timely, and in many instances timeless, insights and the very, very forward thinking of this woman.

There are any number of books 'out there' that quote others. This one is different because it touches in such a special way. I cannot, for the life of me, imagine anyone who would close this book and not be touched and changed.

How much do I appreciate this work? I have moved from my first copy to nine additional ones to share with others. And now my wife is composing a list of others with whom this needs to be shared.

This is not a novel; these are reflective selections. Reflect and marvel (for some of us once again) at the wisdom of Eleanor.

Eleanor Roosevelt

I have always been fascinated by this great lady, and this book brought the reason why home beautifully. She was an inspiration in her time, and much of what she believed and fought for is still relevant today. A must read if you are looking for common sense and wisdom from a woman's point of view

Wisdom of Eleanor Roosevelt

This is a very unique collection of quotes from the progressive era. Eleanor Roosevelt was a leader in the rights of so many. It was a good read and tribute to someone who helped with the start of the United Nations.






A First Ladies' Pearls

The wife of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the mother of six children, Eleanor Roosevelt traveled widely, wrote a daily newspaper coloumn, had her own radio show and was an indefatigable worker for a wide range of social causes. It hardly seems credible that it took more than half a century for a book of this type to be written and published. The Wisdom of Eleanor Roosevelt is filled with the First Ladies' pithy comments and
and useful advice. From start to finish, it's a rewarding read.
