Was aviation pioneer and popular American hero Charles A. Lindbergh a Nazi sympathizer and anti-Semite, or was he the target of a vicious personal vendetta by President Roosevelt? In Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt, author James Duffy tackles these questions head-on by examining the conflicting personalities, aspirations, and actions of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Charles A. Lindbergh. Painting a politically incorrect portrait of both men, Duffy shows how the hostility between these two American giants divided the nation on both domestic and international affairs. From canceling US air-mail contracts to intervening in World War II, Lindbergh and Roosevelt’s clash of ideas and opinions shaped the nation’s policies here and abroad.
Insightful and engaging, Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt reveals the untold story about two of history’s most controversial men and how the White House waged a smear campaign against Lindbergh that blighted his reputation forever.

En bog der viser splittelsen idag mellen republikanere og demokrater. Roosevelt og Obama sammenlignes: de fremstilles som intolerante og diktatoriske og som inkompetente: Roosevelts “New Deal” skal have forlænget depressionen og Obamacare er gift for borgernes frihed og sabotage af markedsøkonomien.Lindberg var fremsynet og fordomsfri i sit udenrigspolitiske syn, han skulle have været i stand til at sikre fred gennem forhandling med Hitler og nazisterne.Som sagt står den afgrundsdybe forskel mellem republikanere og demokrater klarere for mig, efter at have læst dette værkJeg vil som perspektiverende læsning anbefale Lynne Olson: “Those Angry Days”, der forekommer mig noget mere nuanceret, og som synes bedre dokumenteret. Hvis man virkelig vil have spas med temaet Lindberg/Roosevelt, kan man læse “The Plot Against America” af Philip Roth, der er fiktion og gennemspiller, hvad der kunne være sket, hvis Lindberg var blevet USAs præsident i stedet for Roosevelt efter hans 2. periode.
