Letter from Albert Shaw to Theodore Roosevelt

Albert Shaw, editor of the magazine Review of Reviews, informs President Roosevelt that William T. Stead, editor of the English Review of Reviews, is visiting the United States as a guest of Andrew Carnegie in order to attend Carnegie’s peace conference. Shaw thinks that Roosevelt may wish to speak with Stead, and says that even though Stead is an advocate for peace, he does not lack in practical sense.

Letter from Arthur Hamilton Lee to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from Arthur Hamilton Lee to Theodore Roosevelt

Arthur Hamilton Lee writes to President Roosevelt about the president’s impending retirement and hopes that it will not impact Anglo-American relations significantly when another man takes office. Lee is distressed about how the papers in New York are covering Roosevelt, as if his character is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. He hopes the president continues to shine light in dark places of the securities industry so that scandals will be brought to light. Lee ends his letter requesting that Roosevelt sit for a painter, Fülöp László, for two to three hours and believes that Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt will agree.
