April 1898: America stands on the edge of empire. The world is watching s President McKinley declares war on Spain over Cuba, even though he lacks the army to win the fight. Enter the Rough Riders, a motlley group of volunteer soldiers created by Theodore Roosevelt to fill the gap. Ranging from Ivy League athletes to Arizona cowboys, they help secure victory in Cuba during the Spanish-American War in a series of gripping, bloody fights across the island. In this brilliant, enlightening narrative, Clay Risen brings Roosevelt and the Rough Riders - and a country on the brink of global dominance - to life.
