THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF ELEANOR ROOSEVELT

by Eleanor Roosevelt ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 27, 1961

Rarely has there been an autobiography so completely revealing of its author. The first three sections were published individually and appear here in somewhat abridged form but with a continuity so that one is scarcely aware of a break in the flow. Her growing up years capture a period that has gone forever and once again make her growth from a painfully shy girl into the outgoing dedicated woman she became even more of a miracle. The final brief section should be read by all who would recognize the challenge of today's world.
