Letter from George A. Strauss to Theodore Roosevelt
George A. Strauss has been reading President Roosevelt’s Hunting Trips of a Ranchman and noticed a section describing soil near Roosevelt’s ranch as being covered with “fossil plants, shells, fishes, etc.” Strauss collects fossils and requests contact information for someone living near the ranch who could collect some specimens for Strauss’s collection which was recently destroyed by fire.
