Synopsis

The Defining Moment shows how Roosevelt used his famous 'fear itself' speech and his first 100 days in office to lift the country from the despair and paralysis of the Great Depression and transform the American presidency. With its themes of a nation in crisis and a strong executive, The Defining Moment is not only an inspiring political story, but also a book that is pertinent to today's debates over both foreign and domestic affairs.
