The Bully Pulpit: Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and the Golden Age of Journalism by Doris Kearns Goodwin

3.0

I was hoping to learn more about Teddy Roosevelt, William Taft as people. I did get insights into their personalities through this book, but it was more focused (as the title implies) on how both men used the press to achieve goals, and political battles. It did not hold my interest as well as I would have hoped, though I can't point to any flaw in the writing. Perhaps it just wasn't a topic as interesting to me as I would have thought it would be.
