About this ebook
Discover the incredible life and enduring legacy of Theodore Roosevelt in this captivating Up Close biography series about twentieth-century America.
Theodore Roosevelt might be best known as one of the faces on Mount Rushmore, but his far-reaching legacy still impacts American life today. Roosevelt was one of the first conservationist in U.S. history and he protected millions of acres that eventually became our national parks. He was also a two-term president, a Nobel Prize winner, a heroic soldier, a prolific author, and a devoted family man.
Roosevelt suffered from severe asthma as a child and wasn’t expected to survive, but when his father challenged him to make his body as strong as his mind, Roosevelt spent the rest of his life doing exactly that. A large man with a surprisingly high-pitched voice, he refused to be held back by tradition, rules, or—occasionally—common sense. Roosevelt lived a long and storied life and was famous for saying whatever came to mind, no matter who was around to hear it.
Explore the bold achievements of Theodore Roosevelt and gain a deeper understanding of his extraordinary contributions to American history that will leave you inspired and informed.
