Publisher Description
Frank, outspoken and revealing, here is the truth about two of the most controversial political figures in modern America: Franklin D. Roosevelt and Jim Farley. These are the unvarnished facts concerning the man who put Roosevelt into the White House and built up one of the most brilliantly efficient party organizations that America has ever known.
Mr. Farley writes of Roosevelt the politician—a human being with human failings—and not a demigod. The full story revealed here for the first time gives a new and surprising picture of the late President, his elaborate political maneuverings, the reasons for the final break with Jim Farley.
JIM FARLEY'S STORY is the hard-punching inside account of one man's meteoric rise to the political genius of the Democratic Party...
Politically, I owe more to Jim Farley than to any other person alive, not excluding my wife!"—Franklin D. Roosevelt
