Book Description
================
Winner of the 1982 National Book Award for Biography, Mornings on Horseback 
is the brilliant biography of the young Theodore Roosevelt. Hailed as 
a masterpiece by Newsday, it is the story of a remarkable little boy, 
seriously handicapped by recurrent and nearly fatal attacks of asthma, 
and his struggle to manhood.

His father, the first Theodore Roosevelt, "Greatheart", is a figure 
of unbounded energy, enormously attractive and selfless, a god in the 
eyes of his small, frail namesake. His mother, Mittie Bulloch Roosevelt, 
is a Southerner and celebrated beauty.

Mornings on Horseback spans 17 years, from 1869 when little "Teedie" 
is 10, to 1886 when he returns from the West a "real life cowboy" to 
pick up the pieces of a shattered life and begin anew, a grown man, 
whole in body and spirit.

This is a tale about family love and family loyalty; about courtship, 
[CENSORED]birth and death, fathers and sons; about gutter politics and the 
tumultuous Republican Convention of 1884; about grizzly bears, grief 
and courage, and "blessed" mornings on horseback at Oyster Bay or beneath 
the limitless skies of the Badlands.
