Places He Went: the Life of Theodore Roosevelt

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) grew up in New York City, attended Harvard, and entered a political career as a young man. He held local, state, and national positions and traveled extensively throughout his life -- to Europe, Africa, and the Middle East; Cuba, Panama, and Brazil; and across the United States.

Join us as our presenter, John Notgrass, takes us on a worldwide tour of the places Roosevelt lived, studied, worked, fought, and explored!
