Summary: "America and the World War" by Theodore Roosevelt is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the implications and lessons the United States can learn from the context of World War I, which was unfolding during this period. Theodore Roosevelt discusses the necessity of national preparedness and the importance of supporting oppressed nations, especially as exemplified by Belgium's plight during the war. At the start of the text, Roosevelt reflects on the unexpected devastation of the war, drawing parallels between the calamity in Europe and historical disasters. He emphasizes the need for America to learn crucial lessons from the conflict, highlighting the inadequacy of existing treaties that failed to protect nations like Belgium.
