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
