Overview
It has been four centuries since the first Roosevelt arrived in New Amsterdam as a humble farmer.
The Roosevelts became one of America's most distinguished families--one with ties to many sites in New York City. A brownstone on East 20th Street where Theodore Roosevelt was born and developed his love of nature. A twin brownstone next-door where his uncle Robert instilled in the future president an interest in conservation, while having multiple affairs and even starting a second secret family with a mistress. And the double townhouse on East 65th Street built by Sara Delano Roosevelt so the growing family of her son Franklin would have a suitable place to live while she meddled in their lives. Historian Bill Bleyer details the unique places in the city where family members lived and worked, and unveils the private interactions behind this famous American family.
