Summary "Roosevelt in the Kansas City Star: War-time Editorials" by Theodore Roosevelt is a historical collection of editorials written during World War I, specifically from the period beginning in late 1917 until Roosevelt's death in early 1919. This compilation captures Roosevelt's passionate and critical perspective on America's military preparedness and the political dynamics of the time, illustrating his fervent belief in national strength and vigilance against perceived threats. The opening of the book sets the stage by explaining the context of these writings. It begins with Roosevelt's immediate reaction to the death of Dr. William T. Fitzsimons, the first American casualty in the war, which highlights themes of grief and national pride intertwined with criticism of America's unpreparedness. Subsequent pieces reflect on various aspects of the war, including the betrayal of American values by pacifist sentiments and the need for aggressive action against Germany. Roosevelt's fiery rhetoric and unwavering resolve serve to galvanize public opinion and demand greater commitment from the U.S. government in wartime efforts, establishing a robust narrative of activism and patriotism that resonates throughout the collection.
