Letter from J. J. Jusserand to Theodore Roosevelt
French Ambassador Jusserand sends President Roosevelt a collection of hunting articles by Guillaume Vasse and a book by Henri Cordier that may be of interest to Roosevelt for his upcoming hunting trip to Africa. Jusserand spent a fine Fourth of July with American Ambassador to France Henry White, whose new home in Paris is “quite ambassadorial.” In European news, Jusserand reports that the state of Turkey seems most troubling, because unrest can spread easily from that region to others. European troops in Turkey are hampered from exerting their full influence. Jusserand includes two newspaper clippings describing King Louis XIV, but notes the rest of the article “had better not be repeated.”
