Letter from Edward Jackman to Theodore Roosevelt
Edward Jackman writes to Theodore Roosevelt asking why, as a private citizen, has he not yet spoken out against the “commercialization and personal greed of the present day.” Jackman also mentions appalling business practices, the over-consumption of liquor, and the destruction being done to the environment for commercial purposes. He finishes his letter by asking Roosevelt what he can do to help combat these issues.
