After just four weeks of training, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's
Rough Riders-a regiment of cowboys recruited into the First U.S.
Volunteer Cavalry-fought in Cuba during the Spanish-American War
with the skill of seasoned regulars. The unit reflected the future
president's character as a wealthy Ivy Leaguer who went west to
experience frontier life. Most of the Rough Riders were seasoned
cowhands from the Southwest, but Ivy League athletes, sons of
millionaires and lawmen filled out the ranks. Roosevelt molded this
diverse group into a cohesive, efficient fighting force and led
them to victory on San Juan Hill. Told from the perspective of the
men in the regiment, this book traces the history of the Rough
Riders from conception to disbanding, and Roosevelt's
transformation into an American hero.
