Why read it?
1 author picked In Trace of TR as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I picked up this book while doing my “trace of TR” trip out West with my brother in 2011. We rode through the Badlands on horseback and saw the site of Roosevelt’s Elkhorn Ranch, even the bar in Wibaux, where he knocked out a bully with a one-two combination.

What is…
From David's list on most charismatic President in U.S. History.
