Introduction
The following pages are a web project designed
to explore the power of the U.S. presidency to shape the path of national
and world events by examing FDR's manipulations of law and policy which
overcame the entrenched isolationism of the United States following WWI
and paved the way for its entry into WWII.
The project consists of three main, yet interrelated,
sections. The first is a paper analyzing the topic. The second
is a collection of timelines and documents relevant to the paper.
And the third is an annotated list of relevant links. Throughout
the sections, links to other sections and to the Web at large will appear
as an arrow .
Holding the cursor over the arrow will display a box briefly describing
the destination, while clicking on it will take you there. |
