Join me and my guest Kathy Freese as we discuss Douglass Brinkley's "The Wilderness Warrior, Theodore Roosevelt and the Crusade for America" and prepare some wilderness food for a warrior.
The Wilderness Warrior examines the life and achievements of our naturalist president, Theodore Roosevelt. Raising a Paul Revere-like alarm about American wildlife in peril: buffalo, manatees, antelope, egrets, he saved an entire species from extinction. Setting aside more than 230 million acres for posterity between 1901 and 1909, he made conservation a universal endeavor. Roosevelt knew how to champion conservation and growth for America. Let's talk to Kathy Freese about Theodore Roosevelt's contributions to our society while preparing a meal that Theodore would have enjoyed out in the wilderness.
This week we will also be visiting a special spot in Elkhart...The Wellfield Botanic Garden where efforts to preserve and enjoy are happening right here.
