Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. There have been many books on Theodore Roosevelt, but there are none that solely focus on the last years of his life. Racked by rheumatism, a ticking embolism, pathogens in his blood, a bad leg from an accident, a bullet in his chest from an assassination attempt, in the last two years of his life from April 1917 to January 6, 1919 he went from the great disappointment of being denied his own regiment in World War I, leading a suicide mission of roughriders against the Germans, to the devastating news that his son Quentin had been shot down and killed over France. Racked by grief and guilt, marginalized by world events, the great glow that had been his life was now but a dimming lantern. But TRs final years were productive ones as well: he churned out several instant books that promoted U.S. entry into the Great War, and he was making plans for another run at the Presidency in 1920 at the time of his death. Indeed, his political influence was so great that his opposition to the policies of Woodrow Wilson helped the Republican Party take back the Congress in 1918. However, as William Hazelgrove points out in this book, it was Roosevelts quest for the vigorous life that, ironically, may have led to his early demise at the age of 60. The Old Lion is dead, TRs son Archie cabled his brother on January 6, 1919, and so, too, ended a historic era in American life and politics. The story of the last two years of Theodore Roosevelt's life, from April 1917 to January 6, 1919--a time when he was plagued by illness and injury, denied leadership of his own regiment in World War I, and lost his son Quentin, but also one when he made plans for another run at the Presidency and set the stage for the 1918 rise of the Republican Party.
