Vignettes show Theodore Roosevelt holding an elephant skull labeled “G.O.P.,” quoting “Alas, poor Yorick!”; sending “a wireless message to the Reactionaries” of lightning bolts; becoming “the Magnet for Republican Politicians” at “Sagamore Hill” in “Oyster Bay”; dining with stuffed figures labeled “King, Emperor, Crown Prince, Grand Duke, [and] Czar” in a room lined with the stuffed heads of wild animals “until he can get used again to ordinary society”; and among cheering crowds during a raucous “Wall Street Welcome” that offends a statue of George Washington.
