Theodore Roosevelt Jr. (1858-1919), the 26th president of the United States, was a conservationist and writer. Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail - published in 1888 - is the account of his adventures as a cowboy, hunter, herder, and deputy sheriff. The Rough Riders was the nickname given to the First United States Volunteer Cavalry, raised in 1898 for the Spanish-American War. The Rough Riders are best remembered for their charge up San Juan Hill, east of Santiago de Cuba, on July 1, 1898. "Citizenship in a Republic" is the title of a 1910 speech Roosevelt delivered at the Sorbonne in Paris. It popularized the phrase "The Man in the Arena", as a person who is involved in a situation which requires courage, skill, or tenacity, as opposed to someone sitting on the side-lines. In the speech "Address to the Knights of Columbus" at Carnegie Hall in New York, on October 12, 1915, Roosevelt argued against partisanship based on religion; he called it a "wicked thing" either to support or to oppose someone because of the creed they profess. By the same principle, he warned that there was no room for hyphenated Americanism, and that Americanism was a matter of the spirit and the soul. To vote either for or against someone because of their beliefs or country of origin was a clear violation of the spirit of the Constitution.
