History Speaks...Franklin D. Roosevelt's Four Freedom Speeches By Julia Hargrove / The Lorenz Corp.(teaching & Learning Co) Roosevelt's Four Freedom Speech was created in response to the Battle of Britain, when England was the only country left to fight against the Nazis.

His ideas of freedom of speech and worship and freedom from fear and want have profoundly affected both his times and our own. A paraphrase of the speech, worksheets, timeline, maps of pertinent countries and informative paragraphs are all included. 32 reproducible pages with answers. Softcover. Grades 4-8. |
