Tweed Roosevelt relates memories and stories from the time he spent with his grandparents, Archibald B. Roosevelt and Grace Stackpole Lockwood Roosevelt, at their home on the north shore of Long Island near Sagamore Hill. Roosevelt describes their home in detail, and he writes of the summers and holidays he spent there which included rowing, sailing, bird watching, and hunting with his grandfather. Roosevelt also describes some of the people who worked at his grandparents’ house, and he describes visits to Sagamore Hill when Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt was still alive.
Two photographs of the house and photographs of Roosevelt and his grandfather accompany the essay.
