Killian's Reviews > A President in Our Midst: Franklin Delano Roosevelt in Georgia

I grew up visiting the Little White House and Warm Springs every summer with my grandparents. This was obviously once it had been turned into a museum, but it was always one of the highlights of the break. It was always so peaceful and being a book-loving child I always wanted to pick a place to chill a while with a good story.



This book seemed to be more of a "coffee-table" type book, but it has so much biographical information interspersed with the photographs that it feels much more dense than that.



Roosevelt was one of the most interesting Presidents we've had for a variety of reasons, overcoming polio being just one of those, and it was nice to get a closer look at how involved he was in the Warm Springs community from the time he discovered it to his death there during his unprecedented fourth term as POTUS.



I've included my favorite pictures from this collection, and I highly suggest checking this book out if you have any interest in Roosevelt or Warm Springs. It's a great look at his life there.
