James "Jimmy" Roosevelt II[1] (December 23, 1907 - August 13, 1991) was an American businessman, Marine, activist, and Democratic Party politician. The oldest son of U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Eleanor Roosevelt, he received the Navy Cross for extraordinary heroism while serving as a Marine Corps officer during World War II. He served as an official Secretary to the President and in the United States House of Representatives. Sidney Shalett (1911-1965) was a writer who also worked for the Chattanooga Times and the New York Times, and in 1947 became a Washington correspondent for American Magazine. He interviewed the Roosevelt family for a project on President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Derived from a Kirkus review: Subtitled A Son's Story of a Lonely Man,this is a warm, generous,reminiscence of F.D.R., the parent rather than the politician, by his oldest son, then a Congressman from California. To his children, especially to James, their father was three people: the vigorous, lively companion before Campobello, the remote man during his illness and the further removed public figure. The recollections span F.D.R.'s career from the N.Y. State Senate to his fourth term in the White House, concentrating on family details: gatherings at Hyde Park; their mother's shyness which made social duties an ordeal; their grandmother's interference which, James admits, spoiled the Roosevelt children; their schooling which meant Groton and Harvard; later, the unfavorable publicity the boys seemed to attract during the war and in their marriages. James raises the question of what drove his father, what was really inside him, but in this essentially loyal book he leaves the question unanswered. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.

Inscribed on the half title: "Harry dear, I think you will enjoy this. Love, E.R." A scarce work signed by Eleanor Roosevelt. Eleanor Roosevelt on "Affectionately, F.D.R., from November 19, 1959: "I have never mentioned in this column the book written by my oldest son, James, about his father, called "Affectionately, F.D.R." No father could have asked for a more understanding and sympathetic tribute from a son, and it is certainly written with deep affection. I have a slight reservation about some things that are said in the book about other people, but not about my husband. The reason is that I think they reflect the observations and feelings of a very young man, perhaps at the time not quite capable of understanding certain things and who, therefore, was impatient.". Signed.

ROOSEVELT, James. [With Sidney Shalett]. AFFECTIONATELY, F.D.R.: A SON'S STORY OF A LONELY MAN. NY: Harcourt, Brace & Company, [1959]. 8vo., green cloth in dust jacket. First Edition. James Roosevelt's informal and untouched portrait of his father, containing much previously unknown material about F.D.R. Signed presentation from Eleanor Roosevelt on the half-title page, to her personal secretary: "To Maureen, With love and every good wish for a happy Xmas. E.R. 1959." Maureen Corr of Eleanor's personal secretary from 1953 until Eleanor's death in 1962, when Corr helped with the funeral arrangements. She then worked for the Eleanor Roosevelt Memorial Foundation, the Asia Society, and the U.S. Mission to the United Nations. She died in 2009 and this book is from her Manhattan estate.
