It's been almost a decade since Doris Kearns Goodwin wrote the incredibly influential A Team of Rivals. Now she brings us The Bully Pulpit, the story of Teddy Roosevelt, William Howard Taft and the chaotic and dynamic America they ruled a hundred years ago.
His timing couldn't have been better. A polarized country, pit bull journalists, greedy Wallstreeters and corrupt politicians. Change the names and dates and it would be a book about modern politics – every page is relevant to our challenges, problems and frustrations today.
And more, The Bully Pulpit is full of larger-than-life personalities; from journalists, editors and moguls to Roosevelt himself. In Goodwin's hands, these characters explode and transform a political profile into a gripping and entertaining story, as much a gripping read as a definitive work of history. It should absolutely be the cornerstone of your historical bookshelf.
