Customer Reviews

A Powerful Book (Speech)
This is a documented speech by "Teddy." If you believe that life owes you something as opposed to working hard and earning your keep, then you must read this book. If you are a self-starter and want to "make a name for yourself" through hard work, this book/speech will get you excited. It is a must read -- even for children. Hard work does pay off!

Teddy Roosevelt, lion of a man
The strenuous life is the name of a famous speech given by Teddy, which is a must read for every academic locked in its cloistered world, as well as every child. Though I wanted a little more from the book, since there is no commentary, forward or afterward, the material speaks for itself.

The Strenuous Life by Theodore Roosevelt
This book provides excellent advice on how a
person should live. It indicates the strenuous
life of toil and obstacles. It teaches the reader
not to be idle, but, to be active.
