Question

Roosevelt’s era is often associated with his personality. When did Roosevelt live? How did he define his times?

Answer 1

Roosevelt was seen as a popular, almost epic figure. He lived during the last part of the 19th and early part of the 20th century. This was a time known for social and political excesses, and he was one of the major figures that shaped the world (through his efforts in the Spanish-American War, among other events) during this time frame.
