At last, Edmund Morris unveils Theodore Rex, the blockbuster follow-up to his Pulitzer Prize-winning classic The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt, reissued in an updated and expanded edition. In a narrative with the sweep and drama of an epic film, Theodore Rex tells the astounding story of TR's presidential years, 1901 to 1909, when his "big stick" busted trusts, made war and peace, and generally proved the truth of what Henry Adams said: "Theodore is never sober, only he is drunk with himself and not with rum." After reading this book, you'll be reeling.
