A Fine, Athletic Man
MoDo:
West Virginia loved F.D.R. “because the Depression had been very tough for them and F.D.R. was kind to them,” [former Washington Monthly editor Charlie] Peters said. (On my father’s trip, he was threatened by a man who asked him about “rumors” that President Roosevelt was in a wheelchair and threatened to thrash any man who said so. My dad, a detective who served on protective details for F.D.R., assured the ruffian that Roosevelt was “a fine, athletic man.”)
