Elliott Roosevelt has written many mysteries featuring his Mother Eleanor as the main character.. What I think I like best is Elliott's usage of actual characters of the era he writes about..I think because Eleanor Roosevelt is a particular favorite of mine, thoughts of her actually solving crimes in the White House is conceivable...All the books are fast reading, enjoyable, and history worthy....
