Theodore Roosevelt An Autobiography is a memoir written by the 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt. The book chronicles his life from his childhood in New York City to his presidency, and includes his experiences as a rancher, soldier, and politician. Roosevelt writes about his family, his education, his travels, his hunting expeditions, and his political career. He also shares his views on various topics such as conservation, foreign policy, and the role of government in society. The book is a firsthand account of one of the most influential and dynamic figures in American history, and provides insight into the man behind the legend.Patronage does not really help a party. It helps the bosses to get control of the machinery of the party--as in 1912 was true of the Republican party--but it does not help the party. On the average, the most sweeping party victories in our history have been won when the patronage was against the victors. All that the patronage does is to help the worst element in the party retain control of the party organization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
