Company, 1914. First Edition. Second printing in March 1914, the first 
being November 1913. Decorated blue cloth. Illustrated with photographs. 
INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the front free endpaper for Virgil 
L. Highland "with the regards of/Theodore Roosevelt/Sept 6th 1918." Most 
signed copies of this title that we have seen have been this second 
printing, which is slightly smaller in format than the first. Hinges 
intact and secure, only light wear to the binding. Near Fine and scarce.

Virgil L. Highland was the president of the Empire National Bank in West 
Virginia and was a director of several coal and gas companies, among 
other industries. He served as delegate to the Republican National 
Committee in 1904 when Roosevelt won the presidency, and in 1912, when 
Roosevelt bolted from the party to run on the Progressive ticket, 
Highland was the chairman of the Republican state committee.
