Eleanor Roosevelt was one of the most intelligent and influential persons of the 20 th century. Her contributions were many. She was modest and unassuming despite her prominent place in history. Her humor was often self deprecating, especially when someone attempted to flatter her.This book captures the essence of a remarkable woman in her own words. Read it!
Very good, memorable quotes from a wise woman. The only criticism I have is about the editing: the quotes are arranged alphabetically by first word (including The), whereas it would have been more helpful to have them arranged by subheaders for the eras they were written in (Depression, the War Years, post-war) or by the topics they were about (politics, the war, human rights, etc.). That would have given them context to enhance their chronological development and meaning, and also make it easier to find a quote again when you remember the idea but not the first word it's filed under.
