- Annotation
- Illustrates a complicated connection between the two men rooted in the tradition of natural history. Claims Hemingway emulated Roosevelt s use of the rhetorical tradition of natural history writing, characterized by precision, objectivity, and purposefulness. However, in considering Hemingway s experiences with war and death, Clark asserts that the author was disillusioned by Roosevelt s faith in the righteousness of war and invincibility of the manly individual.
