Edmund Morris

"Theodore Rex" The second volume in a magnificent 3-volume biography of Theodore Roosevelt. I used it as a reference source for my Great Martian War novel and I highly recommend it. In fact, I recommend all three volumes but Volume 2 is on his presidential years. If you want to know what America was like at the time of the Martian invasion, this is a wonderful source. And if you want to know if Teddy is up to the task of beating back the invader, this will leave you with no doubts!
