Description

Could a past president get today's America back on track? Theodore Roosevelt (no one dared call him “Teddy” to his face) was a larger than life U.S. president. Other than some overwrought portrayals in recent popular culture, what do Americans really know about our 26th president and the lasting impression he made on our nation? Is there a place other than Mount Rushmore for a man who won the Medal of Honor in battle and was also awarded the Nobel Peace Prize? A man who loved to hunt, but is also recognized as a great conservationist? A writer who authored 45 books and spoke 6 languages? Keith Preston will explore this man whose presence dominated the USA at the beginning of a new century, and ask the question, “Is there another Theodore Roosevelt out there who could lead our nation forward once again?" If attending this event in person, please bring a dessert to share!
