2013 “1940: FDR, Willkie, Lindbergh, Hitler – The Election Amid the Storm” Hardcover Book by Susan Dunn

A compelling examination of the pivotal 1940 U.S. presidential election set against the backdrop of a world at war, this 2013 hardcover edition by historian Susan Dunn explores the competing visions of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Wendell Willkie, and the isolationist movement led by Charles Lindbergh as Nazi Germany expanded across Europe. Of all the WWII stories I’ve read it’s this time period which grips me the most- so pivotal and so unknown. Published by Yale University Press, this well-researched volume offers fresh insight into the political debates and decisions that shaped America’s path toward World War II. Book is in very good pre-owned condition with light shelf wear and minor handling marks to the dust jacket.
