O knihe

"Facing the immense complexity of modern social and industrial conditions, there is need to use freely and unhesitatingly the collective power of all of us; and yet no exercise of collective power will ever avail if the average individual does not keep his or her sense of personal duty, initiative, and responsibility." -Theodore Roosevelt, Foreword Theodore Roosevelt-An Autobiography
Theodore Roosevelt-An Autobiography written by Theodore Roosevelt in 1913, several years after his presidency of the US, is a wide-ranging book about a fascinating person. It begins with Roosevelt's childhood and how he grew from a sickly and weak youngster to a strong man; from working on ranches to leading the Rough Riders during the Spanish-American War; from being a New York governor to becoming the youngest President ever; from being a conservationist to being the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for brokering peace in the Russo-Japanese War.
Theodore Roosevelt was also a historian and author, and this well-written autobiography-in the original illustrated edition-is required reading for students of history and anyone interested in being inspired by a different kind of politician.
