This antique text contains a detailed account of various big game hunting expeditions around the United States. Written by Theodore Roosevelt, this fascinating text is both entertaining and informative, and is sure to appeal to anyone with an interest in hunting or in the life and work of one of the most notable Americans to have ever lived. The chapters of this book include: 'Ranching in The Bad Lands', 'Waterfowl', and 'The Deer of the River Bottom'. Theodore "T. R." Roosevelt (1858 - 1919) was an American author, naturalist, explorer, historian, and politician who served as the 26th President of the United States. Many early works such as this are increasingly costly and hard to come by, and we are proud to republish this text now complete with a new prefatory biography of the author. We hope that its contents can continue to be of value to the discerning reader for years to come.

Focusing on the body in every chapter, this book examines the changing meanings and profound significance of the physical form among the Anglo-Saxons from 1880 to 1920. They formed an imaginary—but, in many ways, quite real—community that ruled much of the world. Among them, racism became more virulent. To probe the importance of the body, this book brings together for the first time the many areas in which the physical form was newly or more extensively featured, from photography through literature, frontier wars, violent sports, and the global circus. Sex, sexuality, concepts of gender including women’s possibilities in all areas of life, and the meanings of race and of civilization figured regularly in Anglo discussions. Black people challenged racism by presenting their own photos of respectable folk. As all this unfolded, Anglo men and women faced the problem of maintaining civilized control vs. the need to express uninhibited feeling. With these issues in mind, it is evident that the origins of today’s debates about race and gender lie in the late nineteenth century.
