This provocative study examines Theodore Roosevelt's ideas about
race, focusing especially on his attitude toward blacks, American
Indians, immigration, and imperialism. Thomas G. Dyer gives careful
attention to formal and nonformal aspects of Roosevelt's thought,
as revealed in his voluminous published works and personal papers.
Dyer's book asks a number of important questions. In what
proportions do popular thought and formal racial theory appear in
Roosevelt's attitudes? What was the intellectual context of his
speculations on race? How was his racial thought related to broader
areas of intellectual activity such as natural science and social
philosophy? How did Roosevelt regard various white and nonwhite
ethnic groups? How did Roosevelt's racial thought conform to the
prevailing philosophies of the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries? Historians have traditionally disagreed about the
character of Theodore Roosevelt's racial ideology. Dyer's
illuminating study clarifies many of the relevant issues by viewing
Roosevelt's racial theory as an integrated whole.
