          <body><![CDATA[This is not an easy book to read because Bradley forces the American reader to open their eyes to American imperialism.  He depicts Teddy Roosevelt perhaps as he really was - not as a real rough rider, but as a gentleman rancher who was a racist at  heart.  A president who ruled from the gut, made i...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80242762">more...</a>]]></body>
