Theodore Roosevelt: The American Presidents Series: The 26th President, 1901-1909

by Louis Auchincloss (Author), Louis Auchincloss (Author), Louis Auchincloss (Author), Arthur Meier Jr. Schlesinger (Editor)

Synopsis

Louis Auchincloss's warm and knowing biography introduces us to the man behind the many myths of Theodore Roosevelt. From his early involvement in the politics of New York City and then New York State, we trace his celebrated military career and finally his ascent to the national political stage. Caricatured through history as the bull moose, Roosevelt was in fact a man of extraordinary discipline whose refined and literate tastes actually helped spawn his fascination with the rough-and-ready worlds of war and wilderness.
