The Wars of the Roosevelts

the ruthless rise of America's greatest political family
This book argues that the Roosevelts' rise to power and prestige was driven by intense personal contests that at times devolved into a blood sport because the family was at war with itself---torn apart by jealousy, one-up-manship, the strong devouring the weak, and dismissing the inconvenient (people as well as circumstances). The Oyster Bay Roosevelts (TR's clan) and the Hyde Park Roosevelts (FDR's family) would never fully heal the breach between their families.
