Product Description:


In The Forgotten Man, Amity Shlaes, one of the nation's most-respected economic commentators, offers a striking reinterpretation of the Great Depression. She traces the mounting agony of the New Dealers and the moving stories of individual citizens who through their brave perseverance helped establish the steadfast character we recognize as American today.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Anti-Roosevelt nonsense
Typical anti-Roosevelt polemic. For people who still think that Herbert Hoover was a victim of circumstance and that 1920's Republicanism had nothing to do with the Wall Street crash of 1929. In short, historical revisionism at its worst.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Timely New Look at New Deal
Polls of historians credit FDR and the New Deal with ending The Great Depression while polls of economists credit World War II, according to Amity Shlaes, author of The Forgotten Man. This factoid is a reason while those who like to let data speak will generally appreciate this book while those who continue to hoist The New Deal on a pedestal will see Shlaes as heretical.

This very timely book revisits the 1920s and 1930s through the eyes of both architects of the economy and those ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - An Incomplete Analysis
If you read "The Forgotten Man," please make sure that you also read "Since Yesterday," by Frederick Lewis Allen (New York, NY: Harper & Row, first published in 1939) and "Hard Times," by Studs Terkel (New York, NY: Random House, 1970). "The Forgotten Man" is not, as its subtitle says, "A New History of the Great Depression." Instead, it is an argument about what made the Great Depresion worse than it otherwise might have been. That is, it is less a comprehensive history than it is an effort ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Forgotton Man
Great Book. Tremendous insight into what prolonged the depression. The tradgedy is that our leaders are duplicating the behavior of the 30's almost to the letter. We can't seem to learn from the past. Even from our own history. What an incompetent group of people we have in Washington. Sadly, the pain is about to increase rather than decrease. A must read for anyone who cares about the future of our great nation.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Great Impression
Amity Schlaes goes into such great depth into the pysche of all the major players of The Great Depression. It is lengthy reading but worthwhile if you really want to know what happened during FDR's regime.
