This brilliant play captures the essence of Theodore Roosevelt and ranges from his emotional reaction to his oldest son's death on the battlefield to his involvement in politics to his emphasis on physical fitness and much more. He faced problems creatively, applying the Anti-Trust Act to attack powerful business interests, introducing conservation measures, and raising America to a first rate power. This graphic, expansive portrait shows his deep attachment to his family, his sickly childhood and his warm friendships.
