No Ordinary Time: Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt: The Home Front in World War II
No Ordinary Time is a compelling chronicle of a nation and its leaders during the period when modern America was created. With an uncanny feel for detail and a novelist's grasp of drama and depth, Doris Kearns Goodwin brilliantly narrates the interrelationship between the inner workings of the Roosevelt White House and the destiny of the United States. Goodwin paints a comprehensive, intimate portrait that fills in a historical gap in the story of our nation under the Roosevelts.
No Ordinary Time has won the following awards:
- Pulitzer Prize for History
- Harold Washington Literary Award
- New England Bookseller Association Award
- The Ambassador Book Award
- The Washington Monthly Political Book Award
