On August 27, 1943, news broke in the United States that First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt was on the other side of the world.

THE FIRST LADY OF WWII is the story of this goodwill tour, diplomatic mission, and dangerous fact-finding foray.

Among the writers laid bare are Agatha Christie, who sparked the largest-ever manhunt in England as her marriage fell apart; Arthur Miller, whose jaw-dropping pairing with Marilyn Monroe proved that opposites attract, at least initially.
