T.R. addressing Y.M.C.A. -- Rio Janeiro (LOC)

    One of these photos has been reversed -- but which is it? A clue: check the buttons and buttonholes.

    More Bain/LOC views of Roosevelt in Rio: Former President Theodore Roosevelt, at age 55, defeated in his 1912 attempt at election for a third term as the candidate of the Progressive ("Bull Moose") Party, in 1913 sailed for Brazil to embark on his life's last great adventure, exploring the uncharted rain forest via the River of Doubt. Marked by poor planning, inadequate equipment, and a surfeit of bad luck, the expedition was harrowing, to put it mildly, and TR nearly died (as in fact another in the party did) -- but ultimately in 1914 he and his son, Kermit, and others on the trek returned to the embrace of civilization. (And the River of Doubt now bears the name Rio Roosevelt.) Roosevelt lived to write a book about his ordeal, "Through the Brazilian Wilderness." The story has recently been updated and retold in a gripping bestseller (2005) by Candice Millard -- "The River of Doubt; Theodore Roosevelt's Darkest Journey," a book that comes highly recommended by its many readers, myself included. TR's own memoir of the ordeal is available to readers online, via Google Books.
