The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt
Danny Says
This is a phenomenal account of Teddy’s life up until he became President. Before reading this, I only knew that Teddy bears were named after him, and for some reason he has his mug on Mt. Rushmore. Now I consider him one of the most fascinating Americans in history. Morris points out that Teddy read nearly 20,000 books by the time he was 30. I am trying to make up ground by reading lots of short books!
