À propos de cet audio

New York Times best seller.

A New York Times notable book.

This biography by Edmund Morris, the Pulitzer Prize - and National Book Award - winning author of The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt and Theodore Rex, marks the completion of a trilogy sure to stand as definitive.

Of all our great presidents, Theodore Roosevelt is the only one whose greatness increased out of office. What other president has written 40 books, hunted lions, founded a third political party, survived an assassin’s bullet, and explored an unknown river longer than the Rhine?

Packed with more adventure, variety, drama, humor, and tragedy than a big novel, yet documented down to the smallest fact, this masterwork recounts the last decade of perhaps the most amazing life in American history.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Hair-raising...awe-inspiring...a worthy close to a trilogy sure to be regarded as one of the best studies not just of any president, but of any American.” (San Francisco Chronicle)

"One of those rare works that is both definitive for the period it covers and fascinating to read for sheer entertainment." (The New York Times Book Review)

"Colonel Roosevelt is compelling reading, and [Edmund] Morris is a brilliant biographer who practices his art at the highest level...A moving, beautifully rendered account.” (Fred Kaplan, The Washington Post)

My only disappointment was his Amazon river trip. Doesn’t match up with other accounts. Almost seemed rushed and missing a lot, way to much actually

Interesting and entertaining
