Letter from Francis Langer to Theodore Roosevelt
Francis Langer, a self-described amateur natural philosopher, wants to send Theodore Roosevelt his treatise on the “nature, origin and operation of solar gravitation, as the principle of force and motion.” He enumerates some of the truths he discovered. Langer hopes his treatise will give Roosevelt as much pleasure as Roosevelt’s books have given him. He also hopes Roosevelt will be the powerful protector he needs and will bridge the gulf between him and the learned world.
