Theodore Roosevelt

Starting on November 8th I was assigned to read articles about Theodore Roosevelt and his mission to an unmapped place called The River of Doubt. Making an unplanned trip in Brazil with about 20 men including his son Kermit, risking their life. During this journey they will be facing insects, floods, hostel natives, and capsizing canoes. Theodore, was not very well in health needs to say he isn’t in good condition to take this adventure. But he wanted to prove he could make it, prove to his son and the other entire member that he was capable to do anything no matter what. Even though only being 50 frankly, he was unable to finish the occupation do to his weakness. He was still proud to make it as far as he did, he never felt any anguish to the opportunity, and once in a life time chance he took.
