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

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

Roosevelt bolted from the party to run on the Progressive ticket,
Highland was the chairman of the Republican state committee.
