A Dusty Tomes Audio Book In Cooperation with Spoken Realms

The Winning of the West by Theodore Roosevelt. A Major US History Series in six volumes. G.P. Putnam’s Sons, 1889. Volume One—From the Alleghanies to the Mississippi, 1769–1776

Narrated by Joseph Tabler Note—This book is “read as written.” It was published in 1889. It is in the public domain.

We all know of Theodore Roosevelt being the US president from 1901 to 1909, an American politician, statesman, soldier, conservationist, and naturalist. But few know of him being an acclaimed historian. Roosevelt’s The Winning of the West quickly became a bestseller. The first edition of his book sold out in little more than a month and helped establish Roosevelt as a literary man and scholar, placing him on a path toward future greatness.

CONTENTS OF THE FIRST VOLUME:

Preface CHAPTER I. THE SPREAD OF THE ENGLISH SPEAKING PEOPLES. CHAPTER II. THE FRENCH OF THE OHIO VALLEY, 1763–1775. CHAPTER III. THE APPALACHIAN CONFEDERACIES, 1765–1775. CHAPTER IV.
