William N. Tilchin examines the contents of Outlook Editorials which consists of eleven editorials written for The Outlook magazine by Theodore Roosevelt over five months in 1909. Tilchin contends that the editorials show Roosevelt’s combination of of advancing progressive ideas with a commitment to finding practical, common sense solutions to problems. Tilchin quotes extensively from the editorials within sentences and in twelve excerpts that demonstrate Roosevelt’s penchant for balance and moderation. The editorials discuss a variety of topics from socialism, to immigration, naval preparedness, and the inheritance tax.
Photographs of Roosevelt, the Great White Fleet, and the cover of Outlook Editorials supplement the text.
