Product Description:
The Crisis of the Old Order, 1919-1933, volume one of Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and biographer Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr."s Age of Roosevelt series, is the first of three books that interpret the political, economic, social, and intellectual history of the early twentieth century in terms of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the spokesman and symbol of the period. Portraying the United States from the Great War to the Great Depression, The Crisis of the Old Order covers the Jazz Age and the rise and fall of the cult of business. For a season, prosperity seemed permanent, but the illusion came to an end when Wall Street crashed in October 1929. Public trust in the wisdom of business leadership crashed too. With a dramatist"s eye for vivid detail and a scholar"s respect for accuracy, Schlesinger brings to life the era that gave rise to FDR and his New Deal and changed the public face of the United States forever.

- A splendid first volume in an important history of the New Deal
Arthur M. Schlesinger's three-volume work THE AGE OF ROOSEVELT has never been more relevant than today. The parallels between the economic and political situation of today and the events leading up to and embracing the Great Depression are eerily similar. The economic situation is not a dire today as it was in the early thirties, if only because of the safeguards put into place by Roosevelt.
Still, the parallels between then and today are so extensive as to be creepy. In both the ... Read More
Rating:
- Schlesinger is too much of a fan to write disinterestedly
This book is unfortunately a specimen of what Joan Didion called (when describing Bob Woodward's books) "political pornography." Schlesinger is in love with the New Deal -- which, for all I know, he has every right to be -- and wants us to be in love with it too. So he deploys the standard political-pornographic arsenal. Hard-charging politicians don't just politely smoke cigars; they "chomp" them. People don't write each other letters; they "dash them off." There are lots of people sleeping on couches, ... Read More
Rating: - The Begining of the Age
"Crisis of the Old Order" is the outstanding first volume of Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.'s trilogy, the "Age of Roosevelt." Unlike some biographies, this volume provides the reader with the background to understand the world into which FDR strode. After a Prologue of Inauguration Day in 1933, Schlesinger takes the reader back to the Age of Wilson as the world tried to emerge from the horror of World War I. Following that, he follows the nation into the Age of Normalcy presided over by Harding and Coolidge. ... Read More
Rating: - Enlightening and Readable History
I have read a lot of U.S. history covering the New Deal and World War II, so I am quite familiar with Franklin D. Roosevelt and his presidency. This very well written history of the period between World War I and Roosevelt coming to power in 1933 filled in an important gap for me, and I found some very interesting parallels between Hoover and G.W. Bush, which has helped me further understand why our current president acts as he does. The events leading up to, and immediately following, the Great Depression ... Read More
Rating: - Bancroft Award Winner for History. Classic on FDR's New Deal
This outdated book won the Bancroft Prize in 1958 and the Francis Parkman Prize at the same time. The four-volume "Age of Roosevelt" is the an important history of the Great Depression era, written by a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning author with his point of view coloring the work.
Most readers probably should choose a more recent book on the subject, such as a good FDR biography. More information has been gathered by other biographers and synthesized into other biographies of Franklin Roosevelt, ... Read More
