Elisha Ely Garrison was shocked by Secretary Cortelyou’s letter about the committee not having funds to pay for his recent edition of The Roosevelt Doctrine, since Garrison considered it “a labor of love” and the publisher offered it to the committee at nine cents a copy. Garrison had no role in the publisher attempting to sell the book to the committee. Garrison is happy to compile another book of Roosevelt’s messages and speeches.
