On this week's program, host, Phil Tower, first welcomes historian Derek Leebaert, author of “UNLIKELY HEROES: Franklin Roosevelt, His Four Lieutenants, and the World They Made,” (St. Martin’s Press). UNLIKELY HEROES coincides with the 90th anniversary of Franklin Roosevelt being sworn in as president (March 4, 1933). UNLIKELY HEROES examines the lives of FDR’s four lieutenants Harry Hopkins, Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, and Henry Wallace. In the book, a very different picture emerges of how Americans saved their democracy and rescued civilization overseas. Derek Leebaert won the biennial 2020 Truman Book Award for Grand Improvisation. He was a founding editor of the Harvard/MIT journal International Security and is a co-founder of the National Museum of the U.S. Army.
