Armoured Cars in Eden. A president's son at war in the land that
became modern day Iraq. This is the story of a young American man
serving in a little documented force in an almost forgotten
campaign. More remarkably, he was from a background of military
tradition and adventure and the son of a former United States
president. His war was against the Turkish Ottoman Empire, his
service that of a volunteer in the British army, his familiar
locations Negef, Falujah, Baghdad - exotic place names once again
familiar to Americans at war. His is a story of parallels and
contrasts - of religious sensitivities, rivalries, civil unrest,
occupying armies and conflict along the Euphrates and Tigris rivers
almost a century ago. Roosevelt's experiences conclude in the
Argonne at the end of hostilities.
