This book describes a revolutionary woman who altered and help pave the path of women's role in American history. Eleanor Roosevelt was undoubtedly one of the most important woman figures in the history of the United States, notably during the twentieth century. The direction the author took the book to help the reader understand Eleanor's life, makes the reader feel as if they have a personal connection with Mrs. Roosevelt.

The third edition of ”Eleanor Roosevelt: A Personal and Public Life”, written by J. William T. Youngs, was published in 2005 by Pearson Longman Inc. and is also part of the Library of American Biography Series, edited by Mark C. Carnes. The biography itself and all of its contents are 292 pages. These pages include a table of contents, an editor’s and author’s preface, acknowledgments, illustrations, study and discussion questions, a note on the source, and an index. The biography of Eleanor Roosevelt (1884 – 1962), wife of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882 – 1945), pays great respects to whom Youngs believes to be the most influential woman during the 20th century. By writing one third of the book on E. Roosevelt’s early life, Youngs is able to support his thesis which states that E. Roosevelt’s suffering, and the achievements of her early years made it possible for her to be known as the greatest American woman of the twentieth century. While Youngs was able to support this theory throughout the book, he failed to tie his original thoughts up towards his conclusion, making his original thesis hard to follow.
Eleanor Roosevelt was a First Lady during the time of the Great Depression. She made huge differences in the lives of women, youth and minorities.
To do all that she does, she must be selfless, for example, “Mrs. Roosevelt helped draft the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights” (Jacobs 96). Eleanor’s selflessness helped many people throughout the world. She spent her time in the UN trying to draft the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights and was very successful. This helped many people internationally have more fair rights. Another example of Eleanor’s selflessness is, “Not only did she write and speak, she taught retarded children and raised money for health care of the poor” (Jacobs 96).
The end of World Wat I coincided with a grave personal crisis, the discovery of her husband's love for another woman. Eleanor and Franklin Roosevelt were eventually reconciled, but the relationship was never the same. When they returned to New York in 1921 she determined to build a life of her own. She became active in the League of Women Voters, the Women's Trade Union League, and the women's division of the Democratic Party. Her personal emancipation was completed after Roosevelt was stricken with polio in 1921. Eleanor Roosevelt was determined to keep alive her husband's interest in public affairs. Sher was encouraged and tutored by Louis Howe, Roosevelt's close adviser, whom she had nortvapproved of. With his help she became her husband's political stand-in and an effective spokesperson.
As the wife of a popular United States president, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt was born in New York City, October 11, 1884, and died November 7, 1962. She was an active worker for social causes. She was the niece of President Theodore Roosevelt, and was raised by her maternal grandmother after the premature death of her parents. In 1905 she married her cousin Franklin Delano Roosevelt. They had six children, but one of them died in infancy. Although she was extremely shy, Eleanor worked hard and became a well known and admired humanitarian. (Webster III, 100).
To start off, Eleanor was a reclusive person did not speak to anybody and was alone. As Jackson wrote “she had spent so long alone, with no one to love, that it was difficult to talk, even casually,..”(3). The thing about eleanor is that she had always hoped for a way out. She wanted freedom. So she imagined
In the words of Eleanor Roosevelt, “the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” Once you put your mind towards a goal, it is pretty impossible to fail at achieving it. As a leader you must set goals for yourself, and in return these goals will benefit you in the long run. Eleanor Roosevelt was one of the greatest leaders of her time. She is not just known for being the first lady, but also her achievements and hard work for social justice. Her leadership can be viewed and learned for many years to come.
The role of women in American history has evolved a great deal over the past few centuries. In less than a hundred years, the role of women has moved from housewife to highly paid corporate executive to political leader. As events in history have shaped the present world, one can find hidden in such moments, pivotal points that catapult destiny into an unforeseen direction. This paper will examine one such pivotal moment, fashioned from the fictitious character known as ‘Rosie the Riveter’ who represented the powerful working class women during World War II and how her personification has helped shape the future lives of women.
Heroes and leaders have long had a popular following in literature and in our own imaginations. From Odysseus in ancient Grecian times to May Parker in Spider-man Two, who states, “We need a hero, courageous sacrificing people, setting examples for all of us. I believe there’s a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble” (Raimi, 2004). Organizations need heroes, too. We call them organizational leaders. The study of organizational leadership, then, is really the study of what makes a person a successful hero. Or, what processes, constructs, traits, and dynamics embody the image of a successful leader.
Eleanor was known as a shy Child, and experienced tremendous loss at a young age (Eleanor Roosevelt Biography). Eleanor’s mother died in 1892 and shortly thereafter, her father passed away when she was just a little girl. After her mother and father had passed away Eleanor was sent to school in England through which the overall experience helped draw her from her shell. After finishing school, she began teaching children to read from place to place throughout New York City, mostly within the poverty sections. Eleanor also helped local factory workers that were badly treated. In 1905 Eleanor married Franklin D. Roosevelt, commonly known as FDR, who was an American statesman and political leader who served as the 32nd President and was her distant cousin. When her husband became president in 1933, Eleanor dramatically changed the role of the first lady. Not satisfied with staying in the background and handling domestic matters, she showed the world that the first lady was an important part of American politics (Eleanor Roosevelt Biography). She provided press conferences and made sure to speak up on human rights, the issues of women and children, and working on behalf of the League of Woman Voters. Eleanor fixated on helping the poor, African American workers, and acting as a voice to all those in need of equal rights. Eleanor Roosevelt is
