Renowned New Deal historian Leuchtenburg offers a frank, thoughtful portrait of the lifelong public servant, and shrewdly assesses Hoover's policies and legacy in the face of one of the darkest periods of American history--the Great Depression.
"Catapulted into national politics by his heroic fundraising campaigns to feed Europe during and after World War I, Herbert Hoover -- an engineer by training -- exemplified the economic optimism of the 1920s. As president, however, he was sorely tested by America's first crisis of the twentieth century: the Great Depression. Leuchtenburg's offeres a frank, nuanced portrait of Hoover and shrewdly assesses his policies and legacy in the face of the darkest period in American history."
