The New Dealers: Power Politics in the Age of Roosevelt
Autor Jordan A. Schwarzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 1994
As he assesses the contributions of such figures as Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis, the legal and political "fixer" Thomas G. Corcoran, Texas legislators, Sam Rayburn and Lyndon Johnson, and the quintessential New Deal industrialist Henry Kaiser, Schwarz produces a volume that should be required reading for anyone concerned with current American industrial policy. And he does so with a liveliness and depth of insight that make The New Dealers comparable to the best work of Arthur Schlesinger or Robert Caro.

Descriere
With scholarly depth and perception this engrossing narrative of 20th-century history sheds new light on both the New Deal and current debate of American industrial policy. Out of portraits of Brandeis, Corcoran, Lilienthal and others comes a book that conveys the true scope of Roosevelt's experiment.
