Coles A NEW DEAL: Franklin Roosevelt and America's Fight Against the Depression, 1933-1941 at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
What happens when a nation runs out of hope? In 1933, one in four Americans had no work. Banks were padlocked. Families lined up for bread while the richest democracy on earth teetered on collapse. Then one man gripped a radio microphone and told a terrified country it had nothing to fear but fear itself. If the Great Depression has ever felt like a confusing blur of alphabet agencies, dry dates, and forgettable acronyms, A New Deal finally hands you the story as it actually happened — urgent, human, and impossible to put down. This is Franklin Roosevelt's fight against the Great Depression, told not as a dusty textbook, but as the high‑stakes drama it truly was. Inside, you'll discover: - **How FDR's first 100 days** rewrote the rules of American government — and what fearless leadership looks like under fire. - **Why the New Deal worked (and where it failed)** — Social Security, the WPA, the TVA, and the programs still shaping your paycheck today. - **The brutal battles behind the New Deal** — the court‑packing showdown, the Liberty League, and the enemies who tried to stop Roosevelt cold. - **The forgotten voices** — Eleanor Roosevelt, Dust Bowl migrants, Black Americans, and workers who paid the price and demanded more. This isn't passive history. It's a front‑row seat to how leaders act when everything is on the line — and how Franklin Roosevelt and the New Deal pulled America back from the edge. If you love sweeping, character‑driven history that reads like a thriller, A New Deal belongs on your shelf. Scroll up, click "Buy Now," and step inside the decade that saved America.
