president to decide the best way to handle those situations. Unfortunately, most presidents fail to thrive in those positions due to pressure and uncertainty of the result. Theodore Roosevelt was an effective president who knew exactly what to do and when to do it so that America would grow into a more established country. Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, was born in New York City on October

The iconic Eleanor Roosevelt was not born into a life of success. She made it herself. Eleanor’s mother Anna, who died of diphtheria, was hardly appreciative of her and consistently put her down. Her father, Elliott, drank himself into a depression and eventually a suicide. By the age of ten, Eleanor became an orphan and was taken under her grandmother’s wing. She then was sent off in 1899 to the Allenswood Academy in London where she would meet Mademoiselle Marie Souvestre- the founder of many schools

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962), one of the most admired women in American history, acted as first lady from 1933 until 1945, longer than any other presidential spouse, and put that position on the nation’s political map. Yet, ironically, Eleanor did not want the job because she thought it would hamper her own self-development as an independent person.

In the United States World War II has been one of the most remembered wars of all time. Acclaimed historian Ronald Takaki asserts that for many Americans, World War II was fought for a “double victory”: on the battlefront as well as on the home front. Takaki’s book Double Victory: A Multicultural History of America in World War II reminds the audience that there was much, much more happening at home and on the frontlines during World War II than in the battlefield. Takaki presents a strong central

on an international scale because they were seen as aligned and collaborating with Germany. However, the support of de Gaulle, particularly by the Roosevelts, was less than stable. During the Casablanca Conference, Elliott Roosevelt listened to Franklin Roosevelt describe de Gaulle as “out to achieve one-man government in France. I can’t imagine a man I would distrust more.” Then adding the Free French movement was “honeycombed with police spies—he has agents spying on his own people.” Understandably

Entry 1. The Statue of Liberty In 1865 when the American Civil War was close to the end, a French historian Edouard de Laboulaye suggested that France should create and give to the United States a statue that would symbolize the nation’s success in building a viable democracy. However, because of the lock of money, the work on the statue didn’t start until the end of 1875. The creator of the statue is the French sculptor Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi who created the statue out of sheets of hammered

His solutions were unique, but they are lasting legacies to the man, his vision, and his approach to problems (Walker 2003). Roosevelt knew the American people wanted a solution from the terrible days of the Great Depression. His first act as president was to create a special session of Congress that he called "The First Hundred Days." During these first one hundred days in office

His face had broken into a wide and dazzled smile at what I had said, lighting up his whole face. “Enlist!” I drove on, “I wouldn’t enlist with you if you were Elliott Roosevelt.” “First cousin,” said Brinker over his chin, “once removed.” “He wouldn’t enlist with you,” Finny plunged in, “if you were Madame Chiang Kai-shek.” “Well,” I qualified in an undertone, “he really is Madame Chiang Kai-shek.” “Well fan
