Description:
It is widely known that Roosevelt was a robust outdoorsman, a New York politician and a ‘Rough-Rider’ in the Spanish-American War before he became U.S. President. It is not widely remembered that he was also a very competent and popular historian. Volume 1 covers from the British winning of the Ohio River valley through the American Revolution. Note: This was originally a four-volume work when published from 1889-96, but was re-published repeatedly. Some later editions were apparently repackaged into varying numbers of volumes.
