This episode with be an enlightening interview with Laurence Jurdem, Ph.D., adjunct professor at Fordham College, who pubished a fascinating and well reserached book detailing the friendship between Teddy Roosevelt and Henry Cabot Lodge. You will hear of the enduring relationship between two men - who were very different characters in history, but in actuality had many things in common.

Here is a great review of "The Rough Rider and the Professor: Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Cabot Lodge, and the Friendship that Change American History"
from Publishers Weekly:

"This fascinating study reveals a new perspective on both Roosevelt and Lodge, and the impact of friendships on the course of events. Jurdem ably navigates the huge cache of letters exchagned between the two --- some 2,500 in all --- to tell a story rich with personal detail."

The book can be purchased through Amazon at this link.
