Eleanor Roosevelt: Volume I: The Early Years, 1884-1933 by Blanche Wiesen Cook is a Pulitzer Prize-winning biography of Eleanor Roosevelt, the longest-serving First Lady of the United States. The book covers Roosevelt's early life, her marriage to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and her work as a social activist and diplomat.
Roosevelt was born into a wealthy and prominent family in New York City. Her father, Elliott Roosevelt, was a successful businessman and her mother, Anna Hall Roosevelt, was a socialite. Roosevelt's childhood was marked by tragedy. Her father died of alcoholism when she was 10 years old, and her mother died of diphtheria two years later. Roosevelt was raised by her grandmother, Mary Livingston Ludlow, who instilled in her a strong sense of social responsibility.
