Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Arthur H. Cutler

Subject(s): Public speaking, Speeches, addresses, etc.

Theodore Roosevelt must decline Arthur H. Cutler’s invitation to speak, as he is only able to accept a very limited number of the thousands of similar requests he receives. Every speaking engagement takes a toll upon Roosevelt and to accept more invitations to speak would make it impossible for him to accomplish any other work.
