Elected in 1932, amidst the Great Depression, he launched the New Deal, a series of laws and programs designed to broaden the federal government’s authority over the economy and provide Americans with a social safety net.

Throughout, he held fast to the idea that a government should be responsive to the needs of ordinary people, a vision that he carried into international relations when he promoted the establishment of the United Nations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a sensitivity to his flaws as well as strengths, \u003ci\u003eFranklin Delano Roosevelt: A Reference Guide to His Life and Works\u003c\/i\u003e probes the people, events, organizations, policies and places that inhabited the orbit of this magnetic and complex personality.
