New York City is quite simply one of the greatest cities in the world - as Lonely Planet puts it - home to striving artists, hedge fund moguls and immigrants from every corner of the globe. It offers a staggering number of museums, parks, iconic buildings, historic sites and ethnic communities.

Franklin Roosevelt won four presidential elections and was the dominant figure in US and international affairs from the 1930s through to 1945. His New Deal policies developed, in the wake of the Great Depression, and deepened the role of the government in the economy with massive development projects and labour and welfare schemes.

Roosevelt led the US throughout the war years and influenced the creation of the United Nations.

His Presidential Library is located on the Hudson River about two hoursfrom New York City.
