Theodore Roosevelt

America and the World War

Paperback (Juniper Grove Aug. 23, 2007)
Former President Theodore Roosevelt believed that, as George Washington had said, "To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means for preserving peace." He also felt that a nation must be willing to stand for both its own rights and the rights of those unable to defend themselves. Though America was hesitant to enter World War I, Roosevelt argued vehemently that the United States had a moral and political responsibility to fight alongside its allies. In 'America and the World War', first published in 1915, Roosevelt gives his reasons for this stance, and presents an articulate discussion of his views on the moral, political, and philosophical implications and responsibilities of both war and peace. Reprinted from the original 1915 edition.
