A Roosevelt in the World of Diplomacy and Journalism
Nicholas Roosevelt and American Domestic and Foreign Policy in the First Half of the Twentieth Century
Nicholas Roosevelt is not as well known a historical figure as his famous presidential relatives: Theodore and Franklin. However, his career makes the perfect bridge between those giants of American history. Through his upbringing and connections, he received a taste of domestic policy in the fateful US presidential campaign of 1912 and diplomacy during World War I, which was followed by many years of journalism for such prominent dailies as the New York Times and the New York Herald Tribune. Under Herbert Hoover's presidency, he reached the pinnacle of his carrier, when the president appointed him the Minister to Hungary (1930-33), a nation that was wallowing in the throes of economic and financial depression. Roosevelt later returned to private life and journalism, but during World War II he joined the government as a member of the Office of War Information. Although his health forced him into early retirement, Roosevelt remained a prolific writer and produced many books throughout his life that reflect the American domestic and foreign policy questions in the first half of the 20th century and the early Cold War.
