Abstract
Rough Rider in White House presents a fascinating psychological portrait of twenty-sixth president of United States, a man whose personal obsession with masculinity profoundly influenced fate of a nation. Historian Sarah Watts argues that Theodore Roosevelt struggled, like many of his contemporaries, with what it meant to be a man in modern era. With his unabashed paeans to violence and aggressive politics (Woodrow Wilson referred to him as the most dangerous man of age), Roosevelt ultimately offered American men a chance to project their longings and fears onto nation and its policies. Written with passion and precision, this powerful appraisal of an American icon dramatically alters way we see Theodore Roosevelt and his political legacy.
