Theodore Roosevelt is not included in Howard Chandler Christy’s sketch of the battle of San Juan Hill because he was not in the real battle. Roosevelt and his Rough Riders were taking part in a different skirmish at the time, attacking Kettle Hill, three-quarters of a mile away from San Juan Hill. The picture will be published in an illustrated encyclopedia.
