富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福（Franklin Delano Roosevelt，1882－1945），第32任美国总统。David Reynolds讲述罗斯福的生平以及二战结束时的事迹。
BBC纪录片《二战1945：轮椅上的总统 World War II:1945 and the Wheelchair President 2015》中，大卫·雷诺兹（David Reynolds）重新审视了美国总统富兰克林·罗斯福的战争领导。在战争的高峰期，罗斯福以振奋人心的愿景激励着数百万人追求一个新的、更好的战后世界，但这是一个他很可能永远看不到的世界。他是世界上最强大的军事力量的总司令，但他患有小儿麻痹症，无力完成最基本的身体任务。很少有美国人知道他的残疾程度。
David Reynolds re-examines the war leadership of American president Franklin Roosevelt. At the height of war, Roosevelt inspired millions with stirring visions of a new and better post-war world, but it was a world he probably knew he would never see. He was commander in chief of the greatest military power the world had known and yet a man whose paralysis from polio made him powerless to accomplish even the most minor physical tasks. Few Americans knew the extent of his disability.

在这个私密的新传记中，背景是二战史诗级事件，雷诺兹揭示了罗斯福如何被其健康问题和婚姻紧张所拖累，如果曝光，这些问题可能摧毁他的总统生涯。作为一个神秘、机密性强且情感生活复杂的轮椅总统，罗斯福正在竭尽全力塑造未来，以免历史赶上他。雷诺兹将欧洲和太平洋地区的战争行动、罗斯福与斯大林和丘吉尔的外交高级政治，以及在总统最后一年支撑他的女性们错综复杂的故事编织在一起，探讨了罗斯福日益虚弱对战争结束局势和随之而来的问题深重的和平所产生的影响。
In this intimate new biography set against the epic of World War Two, Reynolds reveals how Roosevelt was burdened by secrets about his failing health and strained marriage that, if exposed, could have destroyed his presidency. Enigmatic, secretive and with a complicated love life, America’s wheelchair president was racing to shape the future before the past caught up with him. Weaving together the conduct of the war in Europe and the Pacific, the high politics of Roosevelt’s diplomacy with Stalin and Churchill and the entangled stories of the women who sustained the President in his last year, Reynolds explores the impact of Roosevelt’s growing frailty on the war’s endgame and the tainted peace that followed.
