Becoming Teddy Roosevelt: How a Maine Guide Inspired America's 26th President by Andrew Vietze

When Theodore Roosevelt went into the Maine Woods with legendary Maine guide Bill Sewall, he was a sickly, asthmatic city boy. When he emerged several trips later, he was a robust, confident outdoorsman - the kind of man who could be president.

This book describes the lifelong friendship between the twenty-sixth president and the lumberman from Island Falls and explores how that bond changed Roosevelt (and the nation) and why it matters today.
