Description
President Theodore Roosevelt is known as 'the man with a plan,' the 'rough rider.' His figure stands tall in American history, his legacy stretching him to larger-than-life proportions. But before his rise to fame, he was just 'Teedie,' a boy with ambitious dreams to change the world, and the conviction to see his stupendous imaginings brought to fruition.
