Description

Explore one of the most significant histories of global philanthropy with The Story of the Rockefeller Foundation. Originally published in 1952, this work by Fosdick remains a primary resource for understanding the impact and operations of one of the largest grant-making endowments in history. Fosdick, who served as the foundation president from 1936 to 1948, provides a direct perspective on the institution during a period of massive growth and political scrutiny. This edition includes a new introduction by Steven Wheatley that provides context regarding the book's original purpose. Written during a time when the foundation community faced political pressure from the right, the text serves as a detailed account of the organization's efforts to navigate complex social and political landscapes. This book is an essential addition for researchers, historians, and anyone interested in the history of American and international philanthropy.
