Theodore Roosevelt

Description

Theodore Roosevelt Hunter-Conservationist reflects the zest for life that was so powerfully characteristic of TR. For decades, Roosevelt's big game hunting books have been among the most often quoted and reprinted of works in that genre. But no definitive biography of Roosevelt as the consummate hunter, outdoorsman and arms enthusiast existed until R.L. Wilson's pioneering work. Biographers who fail to comprehend Theodore Roosevelt's dedication to that world have missed an essential, and central, component of Roosevelt's life.
