President Roosevelt writes a personal and private letter to the editors of the Outlook criticizing their support of naturalist writer "Mr. Long," whom Roosevelt asserts is a fraud. Roosevelt believes that integrity in naturalist writing must be upheld to the same standards as that of other literature and provides several examples from Long's writing that are fabricated accounts.
