Summary:
"There's a famous photograph of a smiling Theodore Roosevelt riding a moose through a river. However, the photograph is an example of early photo editing-long before Photoshop! Many of the stories surrounding the life of Roosevelt are larger than life, and some of them are actually true. Inside this book, readers will discover the amazing stories-both true and untrue-attached to America's 26th president, from his role in the "Rough Riders" during the Spanish-America War to his contributions to conservation efforts in the United States. This book is filled with primary sources to help readers make a connection with the text and with history. It also includes a timeline and a glossary of potentially difficult terms"-- Provided by publisher.
