"The first definitive account of this legendary fighting force and its extraordinary leader, Theodore Roosevelt, MarkLee Gardner's Rough Riders is narrative nonfiction at its most invigorating and compulsively readable. Its dramatic unfolding of a familiar, yet not-fully-known story will remind readers of James Swanson's Manhunt."--Provided by publisher.
