Tr's Last War: Theodore Roosevelt, the Great War, and a Journey of Triumph and Tragedy
David Pietrusza
(Author)
Description
TR's Last War is a riveting new account of Theodore Roosevelt's impassioned crusade for military preparedness as America fitfully stumbles into World War I, spectacularly punctuated by his unique tongue-lashings of the vacillating Woodrow Wilson, his rousing advocacy of a masculine, pro-Allied "Americanism," a death-defying compulsion for personal front-line combat, a tentative rapprochement with GOP power brokers--and perhaps even another presidential campaign.
