Beschreibung
Regarded as one of the greatest Presidents of The United States, Theodore Roosevelt led a full and vibrant life that reflected his storied personality and presence. “The Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt” is an invaluable literary work and a true gift to readers, as it is a glimpse into the psyche of such an enigmatic historical figure. Roosevelt led a life rich in accomplishments not limited to his being the youngest president in United States history. He was a courageous soldier, posthumously receiving the Medal of Honor for his creation and leadership of the Rough Riders in Cuba during the Spanish-American War. He was also the first American to win a Nobel Peace prize, which he received for his negotiation of the end of the Russo-Japanese War. In addition, Roosevelt was an adventurer with a taste for hunting and exploring, especially in South America, where a river is named after him. His iconic slogan, “Speak softly and carry a big stick”, is still quoted and embodied by politicians to this very day, exemplifying his indelible impact on the history of the United States. This edition includes a biographical afterword.
