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

5.0

Doris Kearns Goodwin has to be one of my favorite biographers. In Bully Pulpit she managed to craft a vivid image of two fascinating men and the impact they had on a rapidly changing early 20th century America.

What surprised me was how often I found parallels between 1900 America and 2015 Mexico.
The lack of regulation, a democracy rife with cronyism and corruption, and very powerful group of business that exploit all of the above to further enrich themselves.

Mexico desperately needs a 21s century Teddy Roosevelt.
