This fall, PBS will air a new Ken Burns documentary, The Roosevelts: An Intimate History. The documentary will air in seven parts, premiering Sunday, September 14 at 8 pm, and running to early November. The Roosevelts chronicles the lives of Theodore, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, and it will be the first time in a major documentary television series that their individual stories have been interwoven into a single narrative.
To prepare for this TV event, check out The Autobiography of Eleanor Roosevelt, a self-portrait no biography can match for its candor and liveliness, its wisdom, tolerance, and breadth of view—a self-portrait of one of the greatest American humanitarians of our time.
Eleanore, Franklin, and Theodore Roosevelt were major figures during very important times in United States history. Don't miss this opportunity to watch how this family changed the country, and the world.
