Rise of Theodore Roosevelt | 
pickHailed as on of the top 100 nonfiction books of all time by modern library Morris‘s Rise of Theodore Roosevelt does not disappoint. Thorough, detailed and highly readable. TR is a subject that injects enthusiasm in the reading. The Bully Pulpit by Doris Kerns Goodwin is also a favorite on Roosevelt. Look forward to Theodore Rex soon!
This has been a real treat for me. After several massive biographies in a row, I was feeling a bit burnt. However, Roosevelt does not disappoint. Heading to the end and look forward to the next two volumes. #History #Biography
Finished Status Anxiety, ended with a meh.
Returning to Young Teddy‘s career in the New York State legislature, and it‘s great storytelling.

Theodore Roosevelt, Civil Service Commissioner, interviewing federal officials in Baltimore that sounds like something out of Gilbert and Sullivan.
Soooooo excited 😍😍 #bookmail
I'm starting to feel like I'm losing the battle and my books are actually walking around and setting themselves throughout the house for some fresh air...LOL, I can't imagine what Sagamore Hill looked like!!!!
We were at Sagamore Hill today & saw this in the Old Orchard Museum. :) I know how he feels!!!
I love a good biography, especially ones about my all time favorite President! Morris's work on TR is one of the best. #funfridayphoto
In the tired hand of a dying man, Theodore Senior had written: "The 'Machine politicians' have shown their colors... I feel sorry for the country however as it shows the power of partisan politicians who think of nothing higher than their own interests, and I feel for your future. We cannot stand so corrupt a government for any great length of time.
My parents are visiting for the weekend; our first stop today: Roosevelt Island!
pickThis book made me appreciate Theodore Roosevelt even more. It details his early life and how he became the incredible man he was.
