RT Book, Whole DB /z-wcorg/ DS http://worldcat.org ID 45356591 LA English T1 It seems to me : selected letters of Eleanor Roosevelt A1 Roosevelt, Eleanor,, Schlup, Leonard C.,, Whisenhunt, Donald W., PB University Press of Kentucky PP Lexington YR 2001 SN 081312185X 9780813121857 AB "One of the most important women of the American century, Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962) was also one of its most prolific letter writers. Particularly after the death of her husband in 1945, she became a national figure, often resolving social and political problems merely by bringing attention to them." "It Seems to Me is the first major published collection of her letters to public figures, world leaders, and individuals outside her family. Roosevelt's writings demonstrate her significance as a stateswoman and professional politician. They also reveal a dimension of her personality often lost in collections of letters to family members and friends - that of a shrewd, self-confident woman unafraid to speak her mind."--Jacket.
