When Trumpets Call

In this study of Theodore Roosevelt, Patricia O'Toole focuses on the years after his presidency. Roosevelt soon becomes disenchanted with his successor, William Howard Taft, whom he had encouraged to seek the office. He travels to Europe and Africa, and is a world figure. In 1912, he runs again for the presidency, as a third-party candidate against both Taft and Woodrow Wilson, who wins. O'Toole shows Roosevelt as a world figure, robust traveler, and unhappy ex-president, frustrated by those who followed him in the highest office. What comes through is a portrait of the man who had stirred a progressive strain in American life, and who enjoyed wielding power, but whose task was interrupted--and who to face the somewhat unique dilemma of being an ex-president.
