The New Deal Summary

The New Deal: The Depression Years, 1933-1940 by Anthony J. Badger

Anthony Badger's notably successful history is not simply another narrative of the New Deal, nor does the figure of Franklin Roosevelt loom as large in his account as in some others. What Mr. Badger does so well is to consider important aspects of New Deal activity agriculture, welfare, and politics, interpreting the history of each.

The New Deal Reviews

Masterfully done...it deserves high marks for its clear and lively prose, sound judgments, and penetrating insights. -- Ellis W. Hawley, University of Iowa
A superb one-volume synthesis of the Roosevelt years....Badger never loses sight of the critical elements of change and continuity that marked the decade. -- Dan T. Carter
Extraordinarily well researched, clearly written, and balanced. -- James Patterson
An admirable, unique overview and analysis....This is the finest survey since William Leuchtenburg's Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal, which appeared more than a quarter-century ago. -- Frank Freidel
