Amazon.com Review:
A compelling chronicle of a nation and its leaders during the period when modern America was created. With an uncanny feel for detail and a novelist's grasp of drama and depth, Doris Kearns Goodwin brilliantly narrates the interrelationship between the inner workings of the Roosevelt White House and the destiny of the United States. Goodwin paints a comprehensive, intimate portrait that fills in a historical gap in the story of our nation under the Roosevelts.

My early memories of the Depression and WWII were dim; I was just a small child during that time. What are vivid are the feelings of love and adoration for FDR by my mother and her family. One of my fondest experiences was taking my Mom to Warm Springs GA to visit his home--and place of his death.

I am 2/3 through this fabulous book and, although I am reserving my final opinion until the last page, I truly feel this will be my favorite book of my nearly 70 years on this planet. WWII is my reader hot button. I am a great Stephen Ambrose fan and enjoy most authors writing about WWII. However, No Ordinary Time is the missing link that neatly ties it all together. Doris Kearns Goodwin is a genius! Meanwhile, I am savoring the remaining pages. I don't want this book to ever end.
