In our River of Doubt book, the author often compares Teddy Roosevelts son, Kermit, to his brother Elliott. Both had issues with alcohol and attempted suicide. T. Roosevelt could see these similarites and didnt' want his son to go down the same path of his brother. I found it interesting to learn more about his brother who he didn't want his son to turn out like!

Mount Rushmore is a tribute to President Roosevelt lifes works and accomplishments. I always wondered why Theodore Roosevelt was one of the presidents carved on the rock. After reading the River of Doubt, I now know why.
