Lou Henry Hoover: Activist First Lady
ISBN: 9780700622771 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Although overshadowed by her higher-profile successors, Lou Henry Hoover was in many ways the nation's first truly modern First Lady. She was the first to speak on the radio and give regular interviews. She was the first to be a public political persona in her own right. And, although the White House press corps saw in her "old-fashioned wifehood," she very much foreshadowed the "new woman" of the era. Nancy Beck Young presents the first thoroughly documented study of Lou Henry Hoover's White House years, 1929-1933, showing that, far from a passive prelude to Eleanor Roosevelt, she was a...

Why We Fight: Congress and the Politics of World War II
ISBN: 9780700619177 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) History tells us that World War II united Americans, but as in other conflicts it was soon back to politics as usual. Nancy Beck Young argues that the illusion of cooperative congressional behavior actually masked internecine party warfare over the New Deal. Young takes a close look at Congress during the most consensual war in American history to show how its members fought intense battles over issues ranging from economic regulation to social policies. Her book highlights the extent of--and reasons for--liberal successes and failures, while challenging assumptions that conservatives had...
