Publication: The Macmillan Company, 1930, New York

First edition, fourth printing. 8vo. Non-authorial inked gift inscription at the top of the front fly leaf. Dark blue cloth, titles stamped in gold gilt on the spine, v [blank], 372 [1] pp., frontispiece (portrait of Theodore Roosevelt in riding costume), prologue, illustrated, portraits, epilogue. The spelling of the name Edith Carow Roosevelt has been corrected because in the first issue of the book the middle name "Carow" was spelled with a "K" instead of a "C." Light wear to the spine ends, else a very good copy lacking the elusive dust jacket.
