Hope Restored

by Bernard Sternsher

Hope Restored Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Fourteen writings by historians that show how, even though the New Deal's initiatives did not always work, FDR's program was a psychological and political success because it restored hope to a nation battered by the Great Depression. Mr. Sternsher's focus is not on Washington, D.C., but on what was happening at the local level across a vast and diverse nation.
