Excerpt from Excerpts From Rooseveltian Fact and Fable
But there are straw indications, here and there, that many of them are emerging from the Roosevelt spell. The time seems ripe for appealing from the American people drunk to the American people sober; and to take advantage of the lull in the shouting, for applying the historic measuring-rod to the Roosevelt dimensions.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Unraveling a complex tapestry of fact and fiction, this book exposes the stark contradictions between the public image and private reality of Theodore Roosevelt through careful research and documented evidence. The author delves into his early political beginnings, revealing a less than noble character marked by opportunism and self-promotion. The book challenges the widely held belief that Roosevelt was a war hero in Cuba, meticulously dissecting the events of the San Juan Hill battle to reveal a vastly different truth. Furthermore, it casts doubt on the authenticity of the famous Round Robin, a document attributed to Roosevelt that allegedly advocated for the withdrawal of troops from Cuba. This book provides a fascinating exploration of the creation of a historical icon and the consequences of perpetuating myths in shaping public perception.
