Betty Houchin Winfield explores Franklin Delano Roosevelt's adroit handling of the media within the classic conflict between confidentiality and openness in a democratic society. She explains how Roosevelt's manipulation of the press and public opinion changed as his administration's focus shifted from economic to military crises.
"An important book that adds significantly to our understanding of FDR and the New Deal. Winfield provides a comprehensive, carefully researched analysis of FDR's relations with the media."
-- Richard Lowitt, author of The New Deal and the West
