The New Deal: A Modern History

Michael Hiltzik. With panache and skill, Hiltzik chronicles the rise and decline of the New Deal, from the desperate improvisation of the Hundred Days through the more carefully considered passage of such landmark legislation as the Securities Exchange Act and the Social Security Act. A timely, well-executed overview of the program that laid the foundation for the modern progressive state.--Kirkus (Check Catalog).
