Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to James Sheerin
Theodore Roosevelt details the difficulties of the fight ahead of him, and his opinion that the Progressive Party platform is the first platform since the Civil War to address the vital issues of the time. Roosevelt thinks that it is absurd that Woodrow Wilson’s proposal to change tariff policy could have any effect on real social issues. Roosevelt remembers and appreciates both of James Sheerin’s letters.
