Jack Carr, bestselling novelist, recently announced a new nonfiction series called 'Targeted' coming in 2024 — and here, he pays tribute to America's 26th president, Theodore Roosevelt.
Theodore Roosevelt, president, soldier, hunter, author and conservationist, was born on this day in 1858. Those of us who enjoy our days afield, regardless of pursuit, owe the 26th president of the United States a debt of gratitude.
He then ran for a non-consecutive third term in 1912 as head of the Progressive Party, following a split with the GOP. He outgained sitting president William Howard Taft in the election but lost the White House to Democrat Woodrow Wilson. He passed away in January 1919 at age 60. Roosevelt's image was chiseled into the American landscape he loved as one of four presidents immortalized on Mount Rushmore — alongside George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln.
