THEODORE ROOSEVELT ON LEADERSHIP: Executive Lessons from an American Icon

James M. Strock, . . Prima Forum, $22.95 (288pp) ISBN 978-0-7615-2661-2

Roosevelt faced serious challenges personally and professionally as president. His wife and his mother died hours apart. Immersing himself in work, TR wrote hundreds of treatises and books, won the Nobel Peace Prize and launched the Panama Canal. Strock (Reagan on Leadership), a former government official, analyzes Roosevelt's leadership engagingly and insightfully, but draws few concrete business lessons from his career. (Apr.)
