James M. Strock reviews Jon Knokey’s Theodore Roosevelt and the Making of American Leadership and praises it for its treatment of Theodore Roosevelt’s leadership of the Rough Riders during the Spanish-American War. Strock notes that the book traces the dual emergence of Roosevelt and the United States as leaders, and he commends the work for its treatment of Roosevelt’s early years. Strock concedes that much of what is covered in Knokey’s book is familiar, but he deems it worthwhile because of Knokey’s perspective as a younger scholar.
