Serge Ricard provides three pages of corrections, clarifications, and explanations of Edmund Morris’s translation of Leon Bazalgette’s booklet Theodore Roosevelt. Ricard admits that “Morris knew French very well,” and he applauds his translation. Most of his comments and corrections are minor, and he makes it plain when he feels Morris has mistranslated Bazalgette’s writing. Ricard supplies excerpts from both Roosevelt’s writings and from others to clarify a point or to supply a quotation that escaped Morris.
