Presidential Addresses and State Papers, Volume 2 (of 7)
This is Theodore Roosevelt in his prime: a thirty-something president who had just assumed office after McKinley's assassination and was determined to remake America. The speeches gathered here capture the birth of the Progressive era, from Roosevelt's calls for naval expansion to his famous addresses on citizenship and education. You'll hear the man who coined 'bully pulpit' in full throat, arguing for American power on the world stage while simultaneously demanding that the wealthy and powerful remember their duties to the common citizen. The pieces on the Navy reveal an era when America was first flexing its imperial muscles; his addresses to universities blaze with conviction that education must serve democracy. These are not dusty artifacts but the raw, energetic voice of a president who believed politics was ennobling and that the nation's future depended on citizens who refused to shirk their responsibilities. For anyone who wants to understand how America became a global power, or who simply wants to hear one of history's most electric political voices.
