Lucy

"On the eve of World War I, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin Delano Roosevelt, fiercely ambitious and still untouched by polio, fell in love with his wife's social secretary, Lucy Mercer. When Eleanor stumbled onto evidence of the affair, divorce was discussed, but honor and ambition won out. Franklin promised he would never see Lucy again."--Jacket.

First sentence: The sky stretched over the city, gray and menacing as a battleship, though that is not the analogy I would have made that afternoon.
