“In the half-dozen years before 1935, the American people had been through two profound shocks. The first was the shock of depression, bringing the sudden fear that the national economy could no longer assure its citizens jobs or perhaps even food and shelter. The second was the shock of the New Deal, bringing the sudden hope that the national government offered a magical means of recovery and progress.”
The third volume of Arthur Schlesinger's The Age of Roosevelt which concentrates on the turbulent years of 1935-1936.
