Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to T. Herbert Warren
Theodore Roosevelt writes to Dr. T. Herbert Warren about his lecture “Oxford and Poetry” and his apprehension about the lack of “literary productivity” in the United States. He expresses concern that the amount of “first-rate work” is significantly less than the “enormous ocean of second, third, and tenth-rate work.” Roosevelt recalls his visit Oxford with pleasure.
