The King and the Cowboy (Compact Disc)
Theodore Roosevelt and Edward the Seventh, Secret Partners, Library Editionby Fromkin, David
Description:
In THE KING AND THE COWBOY: THEODORE ROOSEVELT AND EDWARD THE SEVENTH, SECRET PARTNERS, David Fromkin explores a little-studied, but in his view pivotal, personal relationship between two historical figures. Fromkin argues that Edward VII and Theodore Roosevelt, despite their very different personalities, worked together to create an alliance of English-speaking empires. He recounts stories of the rebellious, hard-drinking womanizer who was crowned king of England in 1901 and the archetypal hawk who became president when William McKinley was assassinated. Assiduously working the "great man" approach to history, Fromkin says the shared worldview of these two individuals shaped the world of the 20th century.
