I am enjoying the audio version of this book.


The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt is a biography of United States President Theodore Roosevelt by Edmund Morris and published by Coward, McCann & Geoghegan when the author was forty years old. It is the first in a trilogy continued more than twenty and thirty years later by Theodore Rex and Colonel Roosevelt. Wikipedia

All three are great but I enjoyed the first (Rise) the most. It's probably the most engaging biography I have read. I could be wrong but I think the author got a Pulitzer for The Rise of TR.
 
I also listened to and enjoyed all three volumes. Learned a tremendous amount. He was a much more complex man than it appeared at first glance.
 
A fantastic series! Colonel Roosevelt is equally interesting, Theodore Rex is probably the most eventful (the presidential years); but arguably the least interesting.
