* 1994년 A Newberry Honor Book
미합중국 제32대 프랭클린 루스벨트 대통령의 영부인이었던 엘레노어 루스벨트의 용기있고 도전에 넘치는 인생을 기술한 자서전입니다.
엘레노어 루스벨트는 자신의 관점을 분명히 드러낸 칼럼을 일간 신문에 게재해 수많은 독자층을 확보했으며 1945년 남편인 루스벨트 대통령의 작고 후에는 세계 평화와 평등한 사회를 위해 저술가와 사회 운동가로서 끝임없는 활동을 했습니다.
이 책은 영부인으로서 남편의 정치 활동을 지원하는 한편 사회와 인권 분야에서 폭넓은 활동을 동시에 수행했던 최초의 영부인인 엘레노어 루스벨트의 어린 시절부터 퍼스트 레이디에 오르기까지의 발자취를 따라갑니다.

Book Description
The intriguing story of Eleanor Roosevelt traces the life of the former First Lady from her early childhood through the tumultuous years in the White House to her active role in the founding of the United Nations after World War II. A Newberry Honor Book.
Annotation
A photobiography of the first wife of a president to have a public life and career of her own.
Publisher's Weekly
A natural follow-up to Freedman's biography of FDR, this impeccably researched, highly readable study of one of this country's greatest First Ladies is nonfiction at its best. As a role model for girls and an inspiration to both genders, Eleanor Roosevelt remains unsurpassed. Freedman relates how she transcended both an unhappy childhood (her parents separated when she was six; her mother died when Eleanor was eight, and her father, an alcoholic, died two years later) and a timid nature to become one of the most outspoken, vigorous, highly regarded women in history. The vast range of her interests and activities--journalism, politics and social activism--becomes even more remarkable as the author deftly considers Eleanor Roosevelt's times and her social milieu. Approximately 140 well-chosen black-and-white photos amplify the text. Freedman writes both authoritatively and compellingly, and the Eleanor that emerges is a complex, flesh-and-blood individual, not a dull heroine of textbook history. He also deals plainly with some of the more sordid aspects of the Roosevelts' married life (namely FDR's infidelity), but he never sensationalizes, and his honesty and candor signal his respect for his subject and for his readers. This biography cannot be recommended highly enough. Ages 9-up. (Aug.)
Children's Literature
Truly a lofty standard by which all First Ladies are judged, this distant cousin and wife of Franklin D. Roosevelt, was raised in luxury, the serious and plain child of society parents. This is a lengthy account of Eleanor Roosevelt, written for better readers. Her life is an inspiration to youngsters urging them to rise above that which is expected of them to the greatest heights. Champion of the tired and poor, Mrs. Roosevelt, like Lady Liberty, lit lamps against ignorance and prejudice that still burn today. - Deborah Zink Roffino
Children's Literature
As wife of the 32nd President of the United States, Eleanor Roosevelt was the first President's wife to have an independent role-as spokeswoman for the powerless and downtrodden. She wrote a daily syndicated column expressing her views. After her husband's death, she served as one of the first delegates to the United Nations. She also hosted one of the first interview programs on television. Eleanor's life is a lively story of one woman's courage and dedication. The well-researched text is perfectly complemented with photographs. A Newbery Honor Book and Horn Book Fanfare award recipient. - Beth Shotwell-Valeo
Children's Literature
Russell Freedman's photobiography of Eleanor Roosevelt is a paean to this remarkable First Lady's achievements. Despite her shyness and insecurities, she became one of the most admired women of the century. A Newbury Honor Book, 1994, it is an excellent gift for adults, too. - Jan Lieberman
Children's Literature
In one of 1993's best biographies, Russell Freedman chronicles the life of Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962). As America's First Lady she was both official hostess and avid champion of human rights. After her husband's death in 1945, she continued to work for peace and earned the title "First Lady of the World." Mr. Freedman's selection of 125 archival photographs, which show Mrs. Roosevelt with family, friends, and at work, illustrate a work that captures both the private and public side of this greatly admired woman. - Beverly Kobrin
The ALAN Review - Kay Parks Bushman
Freedman has created a high-interest, easily readable, inspirational work on this former first lady, focusing on her tragic and lonely childhood; her secret courtship by Franklin; their changing relationship over the years; her domination by her mother-in-law; and her maturation into a confident, self-reliant, committed, and serving American woman. The text is filled with excerpts from Eleanor's journals as well as numerous photographs throughout her years, which should provide not only a personal connection between Eleanor and the young adult readers but also a motivation through her accomplishments for today's young people to gain strength to overcome some obstacles of their own.
Kirkus Reviews
A timid child from a dysfunctional family, Eleanor Roosevelt became a courageous woman whose career was propelled by a series of devastating events: FDR's polio, his relationship with Lucy Mercer, his election to offices that doomed his wife to supportive roles, his death; each time, with energy, determination, and an eye for the essential, Eleanor found new outlets and broke new ground with her accomplishments. Giving up her Democratic Party office when FDR was elected governor, she became his eyes and ears--a role she expanded as First Lady, touring the country and the world to observe and ask questions, winning over critics, reporting, advising, and acting as bellwether for forward-looking ideas on social policy and women's rights. After FDR's death, she chaired the UN commission that drafted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. And always, she wrote--articles, books, a daily column; presided over a large family with its share of troubles; and kept in touch with an ever-growing circle of close friends. In this generously full history (longer than his Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 1990, and with more numerous, equally fine b&w photos), Freedman focuses, properly, on the public life more than the personal one, as Mrs. Roosevelt herself did. Even so, synthesizing a wealth of resources (ably surveyed in a descriptive bibliography), he brings her wonderfully to life as a rare blend of honesty, intelligence, deep concern for humanity, and ability to inspire loyalty and convey her ideas. Freedman at his best: a splendid achievement. Index. (Biography. 10+) |

저도 영어 초급자라 다 읽지 못했지만,,,
Eleanor Roosevelt여사의 유아기 소녀시절....루즈벨트와의 만남.결혼..아이들과 함께한 사진,,
대통령재임시절..퇴임후 활동 까지.. 모든것이 사진속에 잘살아나 있어서..
다읽어내지 못하더라도 소장가치는 충분이 있을것 같아요..
위인전기로 강력추천하구요..
전 페이퍼로 구입했는데
하드커버와 페이퍼가 별로 가격차이가 나지않으니...하드커버가 훨씬 소장가치가 뛰어날것 같아요..
제건 특히 화장실 들락거릴때 많이 봐서리.
표지가 벌써 너덜너덜 하거든요..^^
