Troy Gillespie writes Theodore Roosevelt on his work in compiling a historical novel on the history of early Texas. Gillespie has found previously unused material; however, his publisher does not think it is a good time to publish a work on the topic. He asks Roosevelt to examine his work, as Gillespie knows Roosevelt is interested in the history of Texas. Adina de Zavala already read his work, and he states she thought it was “the only thing worth while ever written on the history” of Texas.
