In his review of the historical novel When Teddy Came to Town, Dave Friedrichs notes that the author, Tyler R. Tichelaar, combines fictional characters with real persons to tell the story of the 1913 trial held in Marquette, Michigan, that resulted from Theodore Roosevelt’s lawsuit against a local newspaper editor, George A. Newett. Friedrichs applauds Tichelaar for making extensive use of local history records, and he recommends the novel as “an engaging read.” Two photographs and the book’s front cover illustrate the review.
