Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William H. Taft

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William H. Taft

President Roosevelt has written a letter of introduction for Horace Curzon Plunkett to see President-Elect Taft. Plunkett has a great deal of experience with agriculture, and Roosevelt asks Taft to speak with him about this. Roosevelt worries about the declining birthrate in America, and about the shift away from the country to the cities. Roosevelt also asks Taft to send him some details about his life and career, as he has promised to write a brief introduction to Taft’s inauguration book.
