Originally published in 1897, these characteristic essays by future President Theodore Roosevelt set forth his theory of the obligations, the privileges, and the ideals of good citizenship. Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) was the 26th President of the United States (1901-1909). A Hero of the Spanish-American War, he served as governor of New York (1899-1900) and U.S. Vice President (September 1901) under William McKinley. In addition to holding the elective offices he was also a deputy sheriff in the Dakota Territory, Police Commissioner of New York City, U.S. Civil Service Commissioner, Assistant Secretary of the Navy, and Colonel of the Rough Riders, all by the age of 42, at which time he became the youngest man ever to hold the office of President. In 1906 he won the Nobel Peace Prize for this mediation in the Russo-Japanese War.

Ex-President and explorer Theodore Roosevelt recalls in his journal of a hunting trip in Africa the many animals he stalked and killed for the Smithsonian institution, and his meetings with East Africans.

Stories of hunting big game in the west and notes about animals pursued and observed.

Hunters, anglers and lovers of the great outdoors will fall for the many charms of Hunting the Grisly and Other Sketches, a compendium of ripping yarns from Theodore Roosevelt, the famed outdoorsman and early conservationist who also happened to be the 26th president of the United States.
