ROOSEVELT, Theodore (Teddy ROOSEVELT). FEAR GOD AND TAKE YOUR OWN PART. 
New York: George H. Doran Company, (1916). First Edition. Second state 
binding of tan cloth with black lettering. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the 
author on the front endpaper: "Inscribed for/Roger S. Lewis/with the 
best wishes/of/Theodore Roosevelt/Thanksgiving Day 1917/pp 103-109." In 
the pages Roosevelt cites he advocates universal service with mandatory 
military training as part of high school, the results being especially 
beneficial to immigrants in an effort to integrate them into a national 
identity. "The fundamental evil in this country is the lack of 
sufficiently general appreciation of the responsibility of citizenship." 
Spine and covers lightly soiled, more so to the spine which is faded. 
Some pencil notations in text, including the pages Roosevelt points out; 
an old bookseller's description tipped-in to the front pastedown. 
Otherwise unmarked, tight, and square. Very Good. (#017814) $4,500
