Quotes from the Critics

"...FRANKLIN AND LUCY may be able to make the dubious claim of being as complete a record as we have of the president's sexual history." - New York Times Book Review

"...Persico offers what will prove an important, lasting addition to the literature of the Roosevelts." - Publishers Weekly
