Before he ascended to the highest office in the land as the United
States youngest president, Theodore Roosevelt, with illustrations
by Frederic Remington, though a New York City man born and bred,
was a devotee of the Old West. In 1888, he published this charming
ode to the American frontier, from the rewarding hard work of a
rancher on the open plains to the pleasures of hunting the big game
of mountains high. Today, the inimitable prose and infectious
enthusiasm of Roosevelts writing here serves as much to limn a
unique aspect of the character of the nation as it sings an elegy
for a disappearing way of life. Includes numerous illustrations by
Frederic Remington. Also available from Cosimo Classics: Roosevelts
Letters to His Children, A Book-Lovers Holidays in the Open,
America and the World War, Through the Brazilian Wilderness and
Papers on Natural History, The Strenuous Life: Essays and
Addresses, and Historic Towns: New York Politician and soldier,
naturalist and historian, American icon THEODORE ROOSEVELT,
(18581919) was 26th President of the United States, serving from
1901 to 1909, and the first American to win a Nobel Prize, in 1906,
when he was awarded the Peace Prize for mediating the
Russo-Japanese War. He is the author of 35 books.
