Theodore Roosevelt, As He Presented Himself,
By
This review is from: Essential Theodore Roosevelt (Library of Freedom) (Hardcover)
"The Essential Theodore Roosevelt" brings together twenty-four of TR's most significant writings and speeches. The selections give the reader a valuable insight into TR's nature writings and policy positions. His words on hyphenated Americans, trusts, Cuban, Panamanian and Philippine policies, organized labor, stay at home moms, conservation, muckrakers, lynchings and a host of other issues are all laid out in this book. Of particular interest are his speeches at Osawatomie, Kansas and to the National Convention of the Progressive Party, which lay out his vision of the Progressive Party. The speech he gave after being shot commands summons the scene to the reader's mind's eye.
As followers of my [...] reviews are aware, I have read extensively on Theodore Roosevelt. This book is an essential part of any study of TR. Other writers give their impressions of TR. This one presents TR as he presented himself to the public. |
