Its binding is sound and square, with no spine crease. Covers are unmarked and otherwise unworn. Pages are unworn and otherwise unmarked. Its dust jacket, now protected by a removable mylar cover, is in spectacular near fine condition: whole, bright, and unmarked, with a trace of wear on the bottom of its spine but otherwise unworn.

[Signed] [First Edition] Fear God and Take Your Own Part ROOSEVELT, THEODORE [Used - Very good] [Hardcover]
9535.18 CAD
First edition, first printing. Signed by Theodore Roosevelt on the front free endpaper. In this collection of essays Roosevelt urges the United States to abandon its neutral position and enter the war raging in Europe. Explaining his title, Roosevelt said that to fear God meant to love God, respect God, and honor God. And the only way one could relate to God in this manner was to love one's neighbor, treating him justly and mercifully, and in all ways attempting to protect him from injustice and cruelty. For nations this sometimes meant using force a mighty arm of righteousness to help one's neighbor, as well as one s self, to escape injustice and aggression. And the mighty arm, he said, should be a powerful army and navy ready at all times to spring, instantly, to the defense of humanity (Renehan, Lion s Pride). The final pages of this volume print Roosevelt s 1903 address Bluster Without Force Worse than Abandonment, in which he states, I believe in the Monroe Doctrine with all my heart and soul. I am convinced that the immense majority of our fellow countrymen so believe in it; but I would infinitely prefer to see us abandon it than to see us put it forward and bluster about it, and yet fail to build up the efficient fighting strength which in the last resort can alone make it respected by any strong foreign power whose interest it may ever happen to be to violate it. There is a homely old adage which runs: Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far. If the American Nation will speak softly, and yet build, and keep at a pitch of the highest training, a thoroughly efficient Navy, the Monroe Doctrine will go far. 414 pp. Original maroon cloth (first state, with gilt lettering). Spine sunned, occasional foxing and soiling, light worming at rear inner hinge. A very good copy.

9535.18 CAD
ROOSEVELT, THEODORE. (1858-1919) 26th President of the United States; Vice President; Colonel of the Rough Riders at the Battle of San Juan Hill; recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. His book: America and the World War. Imprinted tan cloth covers. New York, Charles Scribner s Sons, 1915. First edition. Boldly signed by him ''Theodore Roosevelt'', on the front endpaper, with his signature measuring over 4 inches! In this book from Roosevelt s extensive canon of writings, TR examines the causes of the European war, and how to strive for a peaceful solution to it. He also muses on a possible US involvement, and cautiously, yet strenuously urges intervention and preparedness on part of the United States. First published well before US action, in 1915, this scarce title is rarely found signed by him. A remarkable testament to the scope and understanding that Roosevelt had for world events. An important book, and exceedingly difficult to find signed.
