A little about the book

The life story of Theodore Roosevelt, written for young readers in the year he died. It follows him from a sickly boy who made himself strong, through ranching in the Badlands, charging with the Rough Riders in Cuba and his years in the White House, to his African and Brazilian expeditions.

Daniel Henderson tells it as an inspiring adventure, and his admiration shows on every page. It is a readable portrait of one of America's most energetic presidents.
