Content descriptions

Summary, etc.: New York City, 1932. Top reporter Lorena "Hick" Hickok's assignment to cover FDR's campaign and write a feature on his wife, Eleanor, turns her hard-won independent life on its ear. Her work, and a secret entanglement with the new first lady, takes her from New York and Washington to West Virginia's impoverished coal mining country. Together, Eleanor and Hick imagine how the new town of Arthurdale could change the fate of hundreds of lives. But doing what is right doesn't come cheap, and Hick will pay in ways she never could have imagined.
