Theodore Roosevelt, 26th president of the United States from 1901 to 1909, wrote about hunting, history and naval warfare. Hunting Trips Of A Ranchman (1885) opens a catalogue of 36 titles that includes Ranch Life And The Hunting Trail, The Wilderness Hunter, The Rough Riders (1899) and a study of naval operations in the War of 1812. The Strenuous Life (1899) takes its title from the phrase Roosevelt used for the regime of vigorous exercise that carried Roosevelt past childhood asthma. Roosevelt reached the presidency after the assassination of William McKinley and, at 42, was the youngest person to hold the office. Later editions carry the listing to 2022.
