Letter from Charles Tuchmann to Theodore Roosevelt
Charles Tuchmann invites President Roosevelt and his wife, Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt, to stay at the Grand Hotel in Khartum when they visit the city. Tuchmann owns the hotel, which has hosted many Americans and members of the British aristocracy, and its manager is an American naturalized citizen. They would be honored to have the Roosevelts visit, and the price would be “very moderate.” He also requests an autograph for his daughter, a sportswoman who admires Roosevelt’s athleticism.
