Eleanor Roosevelt stands as one of the world's greatest humanitarians, having dedicated her remarkable life to the liberty and equality of all people. In this sincere and frank self-portrait she recounts her childhood - marked by the death of her mother and separation from the rest of her family at age seven - her marriage to Franklin D. Roosevelt; and the challenges of motherhood, including the tragic death of her second son, all of which occurred before her twenty-fifth birthday. It wasn't till her thirties that Eleanor Roosevelt began the life for which she is known. A committed supporter of women's suffrage, architect of the welfare state, leader of the UN Commission on Human Rights and author of the Declaration of Human Rights, as well as being a prolific writer, diplomat, visionary, pacifist and committed social activist, hers is the story of the twentieth century. At once a heart-wrenching personal narrative and a unique historical document, The Autobiography of Eleanor Roosevelt is the ultimate example of the personal as political.

I couldn't put this book down. This was a fascinating look at the historical and political happenings of the day. It was interesting and refreshing to get this view through the eyes of a woman, especially one with Eleanor Roosevelt's sensibilities and position.
My favorite parts of the book were her accounts of her personal and family life. They left me wishing for more. I got the feeling that Ms. Roosevelt's intent for the book was to provide information that would be interesting and important for history's sake. I suspect that she didn't address issues or events that she deemed too personal, even though what she did write was very candid. One advantage of an autobiography over a biography is that you get a more accurate picture of the person's true attitudes and feelings. This book is invaluable in that respect.
