Teddy's Statue


This statue is on Mandan's main street. I took the picture this afternoon since I was reminded of TR recently. Dickinson State University somehow got the rights to be the portal sight for Roosevelt's digitized papers. Now anyone with an interest in his historical perspective will need to go through the Dickinson website to get at them. That institution is proud of that distinction. Harvard University and the Library of Congress hold hundreds of thousands of his documents, but they wouldn't be readily available to the casual looker. Now, instead, you can learn anything about him you want to know on your computer.
