Negative Positive
Title: Teddy's Presidency
Review: This is not a full biography, but rather focusses on Roosevelt's politics from the death of McKinley to his last days in office. It features the major issues of the era, and how Roosevelt worked to fix them. These include the anthracite coal strike, the Russo-Japanese war, the Panama canal, interstate trusts, and ecology conservation. Through these events and others, Morris shows how the President was a master of mediation and diplomacy. This book is perfect for learning about the issues of the early twentieth century, but If you're looking for a book on Roosevelt's personal life, you should look elsewhere.
