Theodore Roosevelt writes Anna Bulloch Gracie about his family’s trip to the Levant. The Roosevelts have been traveling on the Nile River for a month, and Theodore Roosevelt is having a great time. He has been shooting and exploring ruins. Roosevelt particularly enjoyed Karnak, which they saw by moonlight. He has added one to two hundred skins to his collection. All the sporting has been “injurious” to his trousers. Typed copy of original handwritten letter.
