Mr.. Tlgwell's books differs

formal and ambitious. An
other distinguishing feature
is the excellence Of the writ

attempted is q character
study Of one of the most
fascinating figures Of our age
and q history Of his times.
Forces Behind Him
BY far the most brilliant
rewarding chapters are taken
up with Mr.. Tugwell's per-
ceptive and beautifully writ
ten analysis Of the forces and
motivations which made FDR
what he was. In q manner
OF great portrait painters,
who try to keep a study fluid
by working all over 1t at once,
he has in his early chapters
taken what he considers the
main strains In Roosevelt's
psychological makeup from
the beginning to the end.
The method makes these
passages so exceptional that
one is tempted to quote whole
paragraphs. But IL must be
said that 1t makes the later
chapters, which are weighty
with economic theory and
nuances that only the scholar
can appreciate somewhat re-
petitive.
Much compressed, Tugwell's
view Of Roosevelt is that he
was a man supremely con-
scious Of his own destiny and
the power to fulfill Il; that he
was slow and late maturing

cealment: that he was essen
