The man who saved the lives of his PT-109 crewmen during WWII and became
the 35th president fought-and won-his first battle at the age of
two-and-a-half, when he was stricken with scarlet fever. Although his
presidency was cut short, our nation's youngest elected leader left an
indelible mark on the American consciousness and now is profiled in our
Who Was...? series. Included are 100 black-and-white illustrations as
well as a timeline that guides readers through this eventful period in
history.
