Summary

Roosevelt's leadership in the 1930s and 1940s profoundly altered American foreign policy, transforming the nation from isolationist to interventionist and ultimately victorious superpower. Top scholars examine FDR's role in the international arena, focusing on his diplomacy with Europe, Russia, the Baltic States, Canada and the Caribbean; and his relations with American Jews in the face of the Holocaust.
