Title: Cowboy President
Description: Theodore Roosevelt's time spent in the Western Dakota Territory helped him recover from an overwhelming personal loss, but more importantly, it transformed him into the man etched onto Mount Rushmore, a man still rated as one of the top five Presidents in American history. Michael Blake details how the land, the people, and the Western code of honor had an enormous impact on Theodore and how this experience influenced him in his later years.
