Camping With President Roosevelt is an account of the author's trip to Yellowstone Park with former American president Theodore Roosevelt in 1903. A fascinating and insightful story interspersed with examples of beautiful nature writing, this is a volume not to be missed by fans and collectors of Burroughs wonderful writing. Contents include: A Storm Centre, The President's Interest In Natural History, His Love Of Animals, Meeting The People, A Pretty Incident, Ranch Life The Making Of Him, Old Neighbors, Bad Lands And Bad Men, The President's Cordiality, etc. John Burroughs (1837 - 1921) was an American naturalist, essayist, and active member of the U.S. conservation movement. Burroughs' work was incredibly popular during his lifetime, and his legacy has lived on in the form of twelve U.S. Schools named after him, Burroughs Mountain, and the John Burroughs Association-which publicly recognizes well-written and illustrated natural history publications. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
