Hermann Hagedorn (18 July 1882 – 27 July 1964) was an American author, poet and biographer. He was born in New York City and educated at The Hill School and Harvard University, where he was awarded the George B. Sohier Prize for literature, the University of Berlin, and Columbia University. From 1909 to 1911, he was an instructor in English at Harvard. Hagedorn was a friend and biographer of Theodore Roosevelt. He also served as Secretary and Director of the Theodore Roosevelt Association from 1919 to 1957. Drawing upon his friendship with Roosevelt, Hagedorn was able to elicit the support of Roosevelt's friends and associates' personal recollections in his biography of TR which was first published in 1918 and then updated in 1922. Drawing on the same friends and associates of Roosevelt, Hagedorn also published the first serious study of TR's experience as a rancher in the Badlands after the death of his wife and mother in 1884. Hagedorn's access to TR's associates in these two books has been utilized by historian, Edmund Morris in his two highly acclaimed biographical books on Roosevelt published in 1979 and 2001. Alive with the magic of Roosevelt's inspiring personality, this is the story of the joys and struggles,the defeats and triumphs of a family that made headlines and history for a quarter of a century.

Rust marks inside front cover and in top margin through title page. Inscribed by the author. The author was inaugurated as president of Lander College on May 21, 1966. Inside the small museum, visitors can see a bed similar to the one that Jackson shared with his poor pioneer family in the "Living With Relatives" exhibit, and the sword hilt stolen from the Andrew Jackson statue in New Orleans in the 1950s. There's an exhibit about Jackson's battle-scarred body, and an impressive hunk of his actual hair. What you won't find is any suggestion that he could have been born anywhere other than South Carolina. There's also no hint of the modern-day reexamination of Jackson's legacy, the suggestion that he may have been a bad guy. South Carolina's birthplace monument praises him as, "Brave, Truculent, Noble, Able, Honest." The sign at the Jackson statue calls him "champion of the common man" and "a larger-than-life hero." South Carolina didn't go to all this trouble for a flawed President; Andrew Jackson will always be praiseworthy here. More
