As chair of the United Nations committee tasked with its writing, Eleanor Roosevelt helped enshrine human rights forever in the American consciousness in this 1948 declaration that remains the foundational text for international human rights. Including thirty articles declaring the basic rights and freedoms of all peoples, this document was a landmark in the history of civil rights and directly informs international law today. This hardback gift edition is an artfully designed tribute to the iconic document.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Eleanor Roosevelt was one of the most admired and influential women of the 20th century. Born on October 11, 1884, in New York City, she overcame a difficult childhood marked by loss and loneliness to become a powerful advocate for human rights and social justice.

As First Lady from 1933 to 1945, she redefined the role, actively championing civil rights, women's equality, and the poor. After President Franklin D. Roosevelt's death, she served as a U.S. delegate to the United Nations, helping draft the landmark Universal Declaration of Human Rights. She died on November 7, 1962, leaving an extraordinary humanitarian legacy.
