T.R. and His Times

"Theodore Roosevelt-cowboy, soldier, explorer, hunter, historian, reformer, naturalist, and last but not least, President of the United States. He led America exuberantly into the 1900s, but for all his unswerving patriotism and over-brimming confidence, his tenure as Chief Executive was as laden with complexity as the new century itself. In this program, Bill Moyers joins Roosevelt biographer David McCullough at T.R.'s summer home at Oyster Bay, Long Island. Together they explore the foremost Rough Rider's incendiary career, which, politically speaking, ended not with his presidency but at the conclusion of World War I. (56 minutes) A streaming videorecording."
