F. V. Greene is pleased that Theodore Roosevelt likes the final form of his book. He discusses several changes he made to the final draft and the reception it has received so far. The main criticism is its warlike posture while the international arbitration treaty is being debated. Greene notes that he hopes the treaty will pass but believes it is important to maintain readiness in case diplomacy must be backed up with force.
