Theodore Roosevelt - Roosevelt Theodore
- An Autobiography: Original Illustrated Edition
“Facing the immense complexity of modern social and industrial conditions, there is need to use freely and unhesitatingly the collective power of all of us; and yet no exercise of collective power will ever avail if the average individual does not keep his or her sense of personal duty, initiative, and responsibility.” —Theodore Roosevelt, Foreword Theodore Roosevelt—An Autobiography
Theodore Roosevelt—An Autobiography written by Theodore Roosevelt in 1913, several years after his presidency of the US, is a wide-ranging book about a fascinating person. It begins with Roosevelt’s childhood and how he grew from a sickly and weak youngster to a strong man; from working on ranches to leading the Rough Riders during the Spanish-American War; from being a New York governor to becoming the youngest President ever; from being a conservationist to being the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for brokering peace in the Russo-Japanese War.
Theodore Roosevelt was also a historian and author, and this well-written autobiography—in the original illustrated edition—is required reading for students of history and anyone interested in being inspired by a different kind of politician.
