A fascinating destination for U.S. history buffs
Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum的点评
点评:At the FDR Presidential Library and Museum, we are reminded of the four freedoms — of speech, of worship, from want and from fear — articulated in the 32nd President’s wartime State of the Union address in 1941.
For history buffs, this gem in the Hudson Valley deserves an unharried visit. As the first and only presidential library with archives of a four-term president, there is much to see and unpack:
1. Taking over the U.S. presidency during the Depression
2. Crafting and launching the New Deal
3. Presiding over the years leading up to, and during, the Second World War
4. Running the highest office in the land while living with a serious physical disability, and leaving behind a legacy for the disability movement
5. And, a beautiful family estate that includes a intimate tour of the Roosevelt family house
Fun fact: The family name “Roosevelt” comes from the Dutch “Rosenvelt” which means “rose field” — a happy coincidence to the botanical that adorns our farm and that bears the name of our bed and breakfast. 🌹🥀
翻译:在罗斯福总统图书馆和博物馆,我们想起了第 32 任总统在 1941 年战时国情咨文中阐述的四大自由——言论自由、宗教自由、免于匮乏的自由和免于恐惧的自由。
对于历史爱好者来说,哈德逊河谷的这颗瑰宝值得您悠闲地游览。作为第一个也是唯一一个拥有四届总统档案的总统图书馆,这里有很多值得一看和解读的内容:
1. 在大萧条时期接任美国总统
2. 制定和推出新政
3. 在第二次世界大战前和二战期间担任总统
4. 在身患严重身体残疾的情况下担任国家最高职务,并为残疾人运动留下了遗产
5. 还有美丽的家族庄园,包括罗斯福家族住宅的亲密之旅
有趣的事实:家族姓氏“罗斯福”来自荷兰语“Rosenvelt”,意思是“玫瑰田”——与装饰我们农场并以我们的住宿加早餐旅馆命名的植物相得益彰。🌹🥀
