Random House Books for Young Readers Edmund Morris's Theodore Roosevelt Trilogy Bundle: The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt, Theodore Rex, and Colonel Roosevelt

Mine got ruined during recent Dubai rainstorm - so I'll have to buy again, but I'm also keeping my "drowned and dryed" originals because these books are just too near and dear to just give up upon even if they were ravaged by water.If you are reading this: just get them. Not necessarily from here. But get them. It's a wonderful read.

This is well written, factual, and very interesting. I have finished 2 of the three volumes and am looking forward to the 3rd.If you purchase this set of 3 volumes you will be glad you did. It is well worth the read.

Truly a unique and inspiring character. Ranks up there with the biographies of Churchill, napoleon, and peter the great.

Theodore Roosevelt was the 26th American President and the youngest person to assume that office (JFK is the youngest to be voted into the position). Edmund Morris has written a three part biography of his life. The first book examines the 42 years till he assumed the Presidency. The second book looks at the 7.5 years he was in office. The third book looks at the 10 years after he left the White House.If you're interested in Roosevelt's life and think you can read over 2500 pages about the guy, this set of books is for you. I won't review each book individually (I don't think I can do each justice here, if you're interested I'd recommend you look at each book in turn), but I don't think you could find a more detailed, and interesting, look at anyone's as you find here.

A quality account of one of our greatest Presidents. Well documented and a pleasure to drift into on an afternoon. Highly recommended!!

Theodore Roosevelt was one of the most influential Presidents in American history and Morris's biography is essential to anyone wanting to understand American (and World) history. This set is the bargain of the year.
