Letter from Owen Wister to Theodore Roosevelt
Owen Wister laments to President Roosevelt that he did not receive the president’s letter until after Wister sent him a telegram. Wister regrets he cannot fulfill a request the president made, although Wister has many questions he would like to ask and hopes to visit in the spring. Wister hopes to dedicate his new biography of George Washington to Roosevelt because he sees many parallels between the two presidents, especially in their conflicts with Congress over fiscal policy.
