This book is about the roaring 90's. In this part it mentions T.R. got.his sensitivity to tje poor while acting police commissioner on NYC. His night time jaunts with Jacob Riis showed him the light. The book is
Island of Vice: Theodore Roosevelt's Doomed Quest to Clean Up Sin-Loving New York. Good book.
This really is a great and patriotic time to be an American; You had the Pledge of Allegiance 1892, America The Beautiful 1895 and in 1893 the White City.
Read Devil in the White City to find out all about it.
