I cannot say enough great things about this book.
influencers in the know since 1933. In those forty something years he packs several lifetimes.A monster of a book fitting a monster of a man. I think it's more a case of what I was expecting, and what I instead got from this that caused the problem. It is a masterful, unforgettable achievement, one which leaves me hungry for the second and third volumes.Theodore Roosevelt is one of our most admired presidents. Through it all, Obama remained determined to serve with grace and help others through initiatives like the White House garden and her campaign to fight childhood obesity. Definitely a Sunday morning book, not a bedtime book during the work week. Definitely a Sunday morning book, not a bedtime book during the work week.

I can’t wait to start the second volume.I had to give this book 5 stars because frankly, it is one of the finest biographies I have ever read. At the same time, Morris does not cover up Roosevelt's warts: He was a racist and a war monger who found solace and joy in killing animals for sport. Thus it is also the greatest presidential biography I have ever read, and I've read nearly thirty such volumes.

THE RISE OF THEODORE ROOSEVELT by Edmund Morris edited by David Ebershoff ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 30, 1979 Everything that, in time, made TR an irresistible force the curiosity and concentration, the energy, the ardor, the dramatic flair vitalizes this hugely detailed, over-long (700 pp), and rather florid account of his life up to the presidency. We’d love your help. . Now just hours after possibly concluding that his political fortunes would descend as he would from the mountain top, a ranger baring a yellow telegram message came into view that would mark the end of "The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt" not in political obscurity but it's mountain In the early afternoon of September 13, 1901, Vice President Theodore Roosevelt was eating lunch on his descent from the top of Mount Marcy where he no doubt had contemplated his future not only in politics but in life.

Never have I read such a thoroughly researched, minutely detailed, yet stirring and compelling biography. Theodore Roosevelt’s incredibly incisive mind is coupled with endless energy.

And he is all this before becoming President at the age of forty-two. Unless you have insomnia. More life reflections from the bestselling author on themes of societal captivity and the catharsis of personal freedom. He wIt's hard to separate my admiration for Theodore Roosevelt from my appreciation for Edmund Morris's great biography. Never mind that, in the latter instance, Morris keeps equally close tabs on his running feud with a fellow-commissioner; the detail pays off when Roosevelt, escaping to the wider fields of Washington, puts the Navy in position to strike at Spain in "three or four hours" as Acting Secretary to the consternation of his boss, innocently off seeing an osteopath. by The Modern Library I have been wanting to read a biography of Theodore Roosevelt for years now, but there was always something more important and urgent to read to. So when the time came i decided to go for overkill and to read (listen on audible, to be exact) a three-part biography that has 2500 pages in total. The author is so enamored that he believes that literally everything Teddy did deserves mention. If we are to get a full story of the man, we need to know about the woman behind him.
Theodore Roosevelt's life is the stuff of fantasy, right up there with history's greatest men Alexander the Great, Charlemagne, Napoleon. If I could award the book 4 1/2 stars I would have.Having been invited by Nate and Robyn Gregory to spend two weeks with them in NW Wisconsin and having had several prior visits to the nearby town, I brought up two books for scholarly review and trusted to the Hayward animal welfare resale shop for supplementary pleasure reading.
