I had read several books about Eleanor and Franklin but somehow didn't pay much attention in history class about the Teddy era. There are so many things that we both didn't know and find hearing and seeing Teddy Roosevelt on film makes it so much more .......understandable and riveting. History does repeat itself. But we are no longer as a nation, what we were then at the beginning of the last century, or in the middle of the last century.
I am going to look up more about the Tammany "bosses" today.
