Theodore Roosevelt stands on foot with his back to the camera as he greets Rough Riders seated on horseback before him. The record dates the photograph to about 1910, roughly a year after he left the presidency. The Rough Riders, formally the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry, were raised for the Spanish-American War in 1898, and Roosevelt, their second in command, became a national figure after their charge up San Juan Hill in Cuba. Images like this one show how closely the regiment remained tied to his public image long after the fighting ended.
