Reviews
"An entertaining tale... The curious innocence of the times is delightfully evoked." -- The Spectator "An entertainingly lurid picture of Eleanor & Franklin's unconventional married life and the media hype that technicoloured the whole circus is contrasted with the stiffer protocols and personalities of royalty." -- Saga Magazine
