Teddy Roosevelt: American Rough Rider

Paperback (Sterling March 1, 2007) , Updated ed. edition
Before Teddy Roosevelt earned his reputation as a strong, masculine hunter, explorer, and Rough Rider, he actually endured a sickly childhood. That’s just one aspect of his life covered in this handsomely illustrated biography, which follows his transformation into a disciplined athlete and one of the world’s best-known public servants and politicians. Renowned author John Garraty uses quotes from Roosevelt throughout, giving readers direct contact with the man’s colorful personality. In addition, Garraty masterfully eliminates confusing details, while emphasizing the significance of Roosevelt’s actions as he deals with opposing faction. He emerges as the first modern President and a great statesman.
