T...Ah, see, you should have asked an English major. This book is by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of <I>Truman.</I>:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.amazon.com/Mornings-Horseback-Extraordinary-Vanished-Roosevelt/dp/0671227114/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1203267638&sr=1-5" REL="nofollow">Mornings on Horseback: The Story of an Extraordinary Family, a Vanished Way of Life, and the Unique Child Who Became Theodore Roosevelt.</A><BR/><BR/>The very first section deals with young Teddy, his asthma, and its impact on his family. The information is a little dated and leans too heavily on the inaccurate asthma-is-largely-pyschological theory, but it's a fascinating read. Let me know how you like it if you check it out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423880838207203660.post-23115207001311050212008-02-15T13:35:00.000-05:002008-02-15T13:35:00.000-05:00I'm glad you asked.Asthma was only one of my alime...I'm glad you asked.<BR/><BR/>Asthma was only one of my aliments, and nothing stopped me from having a a bully of a life. <BR/><BR/>Whenever challenged by illnesses I would always persevere and be a better person for it. <BR/><BR/>Frankly, overcoming these ailments, such as asthma made me the person I became. No challenge was to large. The bigger the better. In fact, if there were no challenges for me to overcome, why I would create them. This is partially why I spent much of my early years in the deadlands of the Dakotas, and the main reason I took my son and several others with me on a perilous journey near the Amazon after I lost my last campaign.<BR/><BR/>I can tell that the author of this blog and I have that much in common. We haven't let asthma deter us in anyway, in fact we've actually benefited from it.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, took me awhile to type this since I wrote free hand all my life, but was happy to take a moment to respond.Luckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13085685983205916700noreply@blogger.com
