Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, 1884 -1962 All of us who look back on our childhoods have imperfect memories of them. Eleanor Roosevelt was no exception. The difference from most of us is that Eleanor published her memories, which are the only source of information available about her childhood. As James Kearney points out in his book, Eleanor makes contradictory statements about her childhood. "I was lonely as a little girl," vs. "I can never remember being lonely." "...The rigidity of my early bringing up," contrasted with "no one disturbed me [if] I...forgot to appear at meals." The contradiction of books that strangely disappeared when she started reading them and the statement, "I was brought up in a home that did not believe in censorship." And there are others. However, none of these contradictions detract from the main facts of the sad childhood of this fascinating lady--a lady whose life proved that a difficult childhood doesn't require a person to become a difficult adult. eleanor roosevelt • president's wives • u.s. • history • american
