| 520 8# - SUMMARY, ETC. |
| Summary, etc. |
Hull never groomed a successor, and Welles kept his foreign assignations as classified as his sexual orientation. |
| 520 8# - SUMMARY, ETC. |
| Summary, etc. |
Gellman concludes that although Roosevelt, Hull, and Welles usually agreed on foreign policy matters, the events that molded each man's character remained a mystery to others. Their failure to cope with their secret affairs - to subordinate their personal concerns to the higher good of the nation - eventually destroyed much of what they hoped would be their legacy. Roosevelt never explained his objectives to Vice-President Harry Truman or anyone else. |
| 520 8# - SUMMARY, ETC. |
| Summary, etc. |
In Secret Affairs Irwin Gellman brings to light startling new information about the intrigues, deceptions, and behind-the-scenes power struggles that influenced America's role in World War II and left their mark on world events - for good or ill - in the half-century that followed. |
| 520 8# - SUMMARY, ETC. |
| Summary, etc. |
These three legendary figures - Franklin Roosevelt, Cordell Hull, and Sumner Welles - not only concealed such secrets for more than a decade but did so while directing U.S. foreign policy during some of the most perilous events in the nation's history. |
| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
| Summary, etc. |
The president was paralyzed from the waist down, but concealed the extent of his disability from a public that was never permitted to see him in a wheelchair. The secretary of state was old and frail, debilitated by a highly contagious and usually fatal disease that was as closely guarded a state secret as his wife's Jewish ancestry. The under secretary was a pompous and aloof man who married three times but, when intoxicated, preferred sex with railroad porters, shoeshine boys, and cabdrivers. |
