FDR Goes to War by Burton W Folsom
From the acclaimed author of New Deal or Raw Deal?, an eye-opening (National Review) expos of FDR's destructive wartime policies. WAS FRANKLIN DELANO ROSEVELT REALY A GREAT WARTIME LEADER, AS HISTORIANS ALMOST UNANIMOUSLY ASERT? The acclaimed author of New Deal or Raw Deal?, called eye-opening by the National Review, exposes the negative impact of FDR's destructive wartime legacy on America's economic and foreign policies today. History books tell us the World War I economy was a boon, ending the Great Depression thanks to massive government spending. But the skyrocketing national debt, food rations, crippling taxes, and labor strikes of the time tell a story that is hardly the stuff of recovery. Instead, Roosevelt's poor judgment and confused management left Congress with a devastating fiscal mess after the final bomb was dropped and ushered in a new era of imperialism for the executive branch. In this provocative book, Burton W. Folsom and Anita Folsom make a stunning case that will force America to take a second look at one of its most complicated presidents.| SKU | Unavailable |
