Autorenporträt
American explorer, soldier, and novelist Kermit Roosevelt (1889-1943). He was President Theodore Roosevelt and Edith Roosevelt's second child. Roosevelt served in both World War I and World War II. He fought in the Middle East as a captain in the British Army during World War I. Later, he authored a book titled Battle in the Garden of Eden in which he discussed his experiences. Roosevelt started out as an adventurer and spent a lot of time in South America and Africa after the war. The Happy Hunting Grounds, East of the Sun and West of the Moon, and Following the Big Panda are just a few of the novels he authored on his travels. Roosevelt participated in a number of clandestine activities while employed with the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS) during World War Two. He was a crucial part in the 1943 invasion of Sicily's preparation. Tragically, Roosevelt's suicide in 1943 resulted in the premature end of his life. In the American Cemetery in Tunisia, he was laid to rest with all due military respects. Roosevelt is recognized for his sense of adventure, his dedication to his nation, and his contributions to literature and explorers.
