Item description from seller

Octavo, softbound (stiff, illus. white wrappers), 60 pp. Very Good. "A Lady we like is Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. There's a charm about her, a graciousness, a warmth of personality that shines out like a beacon in any group she graces. We're frank to admit that we aren't overly enthusiastic about some of Mrs. Roosevelt's social and economic theories. She's a bit too far to the left for our fancy -- but the fact we disagree on a few things doesn't wet down completely our admiration for a Very Great LAdy. There are some, we know, who contend Mrs. Roosevelt would never have gotten where she is if she hadn't been married to a man who was President of the United States and one of the outstanding world leaders -- a lot of people insist the outstanding world leader -- of this century. That, of course, helped in no small degree; but make no mistake about it: Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt doesn't owe her present place in the High Brass of world affairs to The Man She Married. But, despite the fact we admire a lot of things about Mrs. Roosevelt, there are times when she makes us mad -- and we're a bit angry at the moment. Mrs. Roosevelt, as you know, makes a lot of speeches. She also writes a column she calls "My Day." In her speeches and in her column she never hesitates to hand down Olympian comments on just about everything under the shining sun from the proper way to raise a family to how to make friends with and influence Uncle Joe and his gang in the Kremlin. Some time ago Mrs. Roosevelt spent three days in Chapel Hill, making speeches at the forum held at the University of North Carolina. She went back to New York and wrote about her visit to North Carolina in "My Day." Her report -- and it was written in the vein of a traveler returning from some foreign country. Southern Americana, American South, Political Science, Eleanor Roosevelt, U. S. History, Americana. bslic.
