Socialist Critique of Teddy Roosevelt

The "Socialist" Roosevelt, Savior of the System: Or, "Socialists Whom You Can Work"/ Some Side-Lights on the Genealogy of the "Bull Moose" [cover title]

McDevitt, William

Notes: A critique of the idea that Theodore Roosevelt, as a Bull Moose candidate for president, was friendlier to Socialist ideas than he had been as a Republican president.

"There be those who declare that the transfiguration of the man-killing, monkey-shooting, labor-baiting Rough Rider of 1908 into the New Saint of the Social Crusade of 1912 is a MIRACLE....Yes, surely, but it is a POLITICAL miracle."
