The Literary Event of the Year 
Theodore Roosevelts 
Chapters of a Possible 
AUTOBIOGRAPHY 
The first installment will appear on the Twenty-second 
of February in The Outlook and later installments in 
the succeeding monthly magazine numbers of the year. 
N OW a private citizen, after thirty 
years of continuous public service, 
Mr. Roosevelt will devote himself to 
relating in familiar and intimate fashion the 
stirring events of his first half-century of life. 
Few have had the privilege of meeting 
Mr. Roosevelt at close range. The millions 
who know him as speaker, soldier, public 
servant, will now have the opportunity to 
know him intimately. He has taken part 
in so much and has done so many things 
that what is now to be told is largely a 
matter of selection. He will relate serious 
and amusing incidents—will give sidelights 
on happenings that have interested and 
puzzled the Nation. He will write about 
events as he has known them personally— 
as a participant. 
So much of the personal side of public 
events as may properly be made known at 
this time Mr. Roosevelt will relate in these 
papers. He will tell of the Standard Oil 
and Sugar Trust prosecutions ; of the voy¬ 
age of the battle fleet around the world; 
of the creation of the Inter-State Commerce 
Commission; of the Panama Canal; and 
of many other historical events in which 
he had so large a part. He will deal not 
only with events, but with the men who 
made the events.
