Revisiting the Legacy of TR

Our modern day "progressives" often like to cite Teddy Roosevelt as the type of Republican they admire. The TR legend has grown large over the years, much in part to that sort of adulation.

This book deconstructs that legend.

Noteworthy excerpt:

"Bully Boy does a thorough job of examining the life of a man generally considered to be one of America's greatest presidents—and of showing how the negative consequences of his polices are still plaguing us today."
