Excerpt from The Life and Meaning of Theodore RooseveltIt would be next to impossible for any one man alone to write a complete life of Theodore Roose velt. There will be many lives of Roosevelt, as there are many of Lincoln, and among them will be, in course of time, an authorized life, by one of Mr. Roosevelt's close friends, to whom he turned over much personal material shortly before his death. But even this authorized life cannot tell the whole remarkable story. It is hoped and expected that other personal friends will write lives of Roosevelt such as only they could write. Senator Lodge, for example, and William Loeb, would bring to the work a wealth of personal reminiscences and an intimacy of narrative and interpretation quite different from that available to other biographers. On the other hand, any life written by an intimate per sonal friend or co-worker will necessarily con tain much of personal viewpoint and feeling. It will present the observations, the impressions, the understandings and estimates gained in close contact during circumstances which reveal some thing less than the whole man.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
