Theodore Rex: "The greatest herder of emperors since Napoleon..."

Date of Review:  May 18, 2002
The Bottom Line: Theodore Rex is so good that I?m willing to go out on a limb and make a prediction: watch for it to win a Pulitzer Prize next year!
Review: My most recent literary sojourn into the world of Theodore Roosevelt (TR) ended when I finished the 555th and last page of Theodore Rex, the masterful second volume of Edmund Morris s planned three-volume biography of the 26th President of the...

Theodore Rex--The World Knows His Name

Date of Review:  Feb 19, 2002
The Bottom Line: Even if you are not interested in Theodore Roosevelt or the United States in the early 20th century, this book will give you the interest to learn about them.
Review: Theodore Roosevelt felt that he deserved the presidency. He was a man of vision who had great plans for the United States, but he ended up getting roped in as William McKinley?s vice-presidential candidate. Providence intervened when an anarchist...

Paperback, Theodore Rex
The most eagerly awaited presidential biography in years, Theodore Rex is a sequel to Edmund Morris's classic bestseller The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt . It begins by following the new President (still the youngest in American history) as he comes down from Mount Marcy, New York, to take his emergency oath of office in Buffalo, one hundred years ago. A detailed prologue describes TR's assumption of power and journey to Washington, with the assassinated President McKinley riding behind him like a ghost of the nineteenth century. (Trains rumble throughout this irresistibly moving narrative, as TR crosses and recrosses the nation.) Traveling south through a succession of haunting landscapes, TR encounters harbingers of all the major issues of the new century - Imperialism, Industrialism, Conservation, Immigration, Labor, Race - plus the overall challenge that intimidated McKinley: how to harness America's new power as the world's richest nation. Theodore Rex (the title is taken from a quip by Henry James) ...
