Whoa, thank you for sharing all of that with me. I love history and this side of the story I find very interesting. I do recall his saying of "Speak softly yet carry a big stick." Definitely war was much different when he was fighting it than what we'd face after First World War. One thing I was told was war then was very impersonal, and long. How Teddy was painted in our school was a bit different, but I could see this idea being plausible. Especially so with how things are now. When I see modern history unfold it reminds me of Eisenhower's military industrial complex warning.
