To mark the centennial of the publication of Theodore Roosevelt’s autobiography, Tweed Roosevelt relates some of the anecdotes found in Theodore Roosevelt: An Autobiography. The essay quotes extensively from the autobiography in relaying stories about Theodore Roosevelt’s sparring with wrestlers and boxers, an anecdote about a former Rough Rider, and the love of books. A photograph of Tweed Roosevelt, a photograph of the front cover and spine of the autobiography, and a text box with the mission statement of the Theodore Roosevelt Association accompany the essay.
