These volumes are an annotated collection of documents covering Franklin Roosevelt's presidency. His direct handling of diplomatic relations is shown in letters, memoranda, and notes that passed between the White House and the State Deparment and other departments, the correspondence with ambassadors and other American representatives abroad, heads of foreign states and their representatives, and also exchanges with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and other Congressional committees. It includes not only foreign relations but also the domestic background of these matters. --Publisher description.
