About the author

Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., also known as T.R., and to the public (but never to friends and family) as Teddy, was the twenty-sixth President of the United States, and a leader of the Republican Party and of the Progressive Movement.

He fathered Alice Roosevelt Longworth, a daughter.

He became the youngest President in United States history at the age of 42. He served in many roles including Governor of New York, historian, naturalist, explorer, author, and soldier (posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 2001 for his role at the Battle of San Juan Hill in the Spanish-American War).

Roosevelt is most famous for his personality: his energy, his vast range of interests and achievements, his model of masculinity, and his "cowboy" persona.

Reviews

[Rifleman · Rating 4 out of 5]

The non-revisionist history of the westward migration of the pioneers. This and the remaining 6 volumes should be a high school text. This man was absolutely amazing.
The last true President of the USA.

[Fredrick Danysh · Rating 3 out of 5]

Theodore Roosevelt writes his version of how the United States was established and spread westward. The e-pub version had several flaws thet made reading a little difficult. But it is worth reading for the person interested in history who wants diverse input.
