The first modern account of Theodore Roosevelt and the First World War, this is a tale of war and politics as well as the private story of true love and family devotion: a story as multi-faceted as TR's own personality.

His previous books include Theodore Roosevelt Abroad and A Wider Patriotism: Alfred Milner and the British Empire.
