Theodore Roosevelt by Nathan Miller

Theodore Roosevelt by Nathan Miller

Nathan Miller's critically acclaimed biography of Theodore Roosevelt is the first complete one-volume life of the twenty-sixth president of the United States to be published in more than thirty years. From his sickly childhood in New York City to his adulthood as a living manifestation of American strength and vigor, Theodore Roosevelt is an unforgettable tale of one of our countries' greatest leaders.

Theodore Roosevelt embodied the overwhelming confidence of the United States as it entered the twentieth century. It seemed he was unstoppable; he was an author, cattle rancher, solider in the Spanish-American War, Secretary of the Navy, governor of New York State, first American to win any Nobel Prize (he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in ending the Russo-Japanese War), youngest man to become president, and founder of the National Progressive, or "Bullmoose" Party. But Roosevelt also faced many tragedies, including the loss of his mother and first wife on the same day, and the death of his youngest son in World War I.Theodore Roosevelt is an unforgettable adventure story that just happens to be true, set against the backdrop of one of the most tumultuous and exciting times in American history.Nathan Miller, a four-time nominee for the Pulitzer Prize, is the author of FDR: An Intimate History, The Roosevelt Chronicles, and The U.S. Navy."An exceptional book. Highly readable, it brings to life a dynamic and forceful man." -- New York Times
