Article about a lecture given by author David McCullough in Oyster Bay, New York as part of a series of lectures to mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of the opening of Sagamore Hill as a historic site. McCullough spoke about Theodore Roosevelt and the Panama Canal. The article notes the other works written by McCullough, discusses the history of Sagamore Hill as a historic site, and previews the other two lectures in the series. 

 

Two photographs accompany the article. One shows John Gable of the Theodore Roosevelt Association (TRA) with David McCullough, Raoul Amador, and Peter Fisher, and the other shows the exterior of Sagamore Hill.  

 

A listing of the officers of the TRA follows the article.
