by: Smith, Kathryn

Hardcover. NY, Touchstone, 1st, 2016, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. The first biography of arguably the most influential member of Franklin Delano Roosevelt?s administration, Marguerite "Missy" LeHand, FDR?s de facto chief of staff, who has been misrepresented, mischaracterized, and overlooked throughout history until now. If you wanted access to Franklin, you had to get through Missy. She was one of his most trusted advisors, affording her a unique perspective on the president that no one else could claim, and she was deeply admired and respected by Eleanor and the Roosevelt children.
