Theodore Roosevelt is shown speaking at what the caption describes as his return to the United States, a homecoming that drew heavy press attention. He arrived in New York in June 1910 after roughly a year of big-game hunting in East Africa and touring Europe, and his public remarks along the way were widely reported. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a commercial agency that sold news photographs to papers across the country. The title comes from unverified agency caption data, so the exact occasion and place should be checked against other sources.
