British historian Frederic Harrison thanks President Roosevelt for sending a copy of his presidential addresses and messages and would like the other volumes. He is “deeply impressed with the statesmanlike judgment and the moral elevation which inspires… and unifies them.” No British statesman since Oliver Cromwell has zealously pressed for the nation’s moral improvement. Harrison has arranged for Roosevelt to receive a copy of his forthcoming volume.
