Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)"In Trace of TR" chronicles the legacy of one of our greatest Presidents, Theodore Roosevelt, while simultaneously interweaving a memoir of Aadland's life in the American West. This is a genuine story, written with a great deal of heart, that relates the shared admiration that both the author and TR have for the West.
Aadland brings you along on foot for rugged hunting expeditions, campfire visits, or riding on horseback through the mountains and forests of western Montana and northern Wyoming. It's obvious that Aadland did an exceptional amount of research into TR's character, life, and values. Interspersed throughout the book are quotes, letters written by TR, and stories of the President's own experiences of the West, many in the very same setting as the author. Aadland creatively relates his own experiences while on the trail, and also with his family and friends, to those which Roosevelt witnessed more than a century ago.
I see quality books as transporting the reader to experience the same setting and plot that is unfolding before him in the novel. Aadland's style does just that, keeping me entertained and interested in his experiences, and those of TR, while pursuing the outdoors of the American West. I would be happy to recommend this book, without reservation, and to give it a solid five stars.
