It’s Teddy Time



Dear Friend,

A good pal of ours is Pete Hegseth: You probably know him from being a Fox News contributor and an occasional NRO writer, but you should really know him as a tireless veterans-rights advocate and an Iraq War combatant.

And now you should know him as the author of a powerful forthcoming book, In the Arena: Good Citizens, A Great Republic, and How One Speech Can Reinvigorate America, a vigorous call-to-arms to reignite American citizenship at home and restore American power abroad, using the timeless truths of Teddy Roosevelt's iconic "Man in the Arena" speech.

It's official publication date is May 3rd, but I am hoping you will do yourself a favor by ordering your copy now, right here on Amazon.

Like many a classic American warrior, Hegseth is rightly motivated by Roosevelt's renowned 1910 speech, in which the former President and Rough Rider famously said:

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

Challenging words, those. In In the Arena, they prompt Hegseth to ask of himself, of the reader, of the Nation, these resulting questions:

Am I striving valiantly?

Is my face marred by dust and sweat and blood?

Am I spending myself in a worthy cause?

Am I daring greatly?

Am I in the arena?

How would you answer?

I am burrowing into my advance copy (really, "uncorrected proofs") of In the Arena, and like very much Pete's compelling argument for Americans to be "good citizens" and "good patriots" and . . . get in the arena. Especially in these troubled times: Hegseth makes an impassioned argument for how Teddy Roosevelt's articulation of gritty citizenship, the dogged pursuit of equal opportunity, and an aggressive commitment to winning our wars (including Iraq!), can renew our exceptional nation and salvage a free world set adrift. In this insightful challenge to elites, isolationists, and status-quo politics, Pete also channels personal experience-from the battlefield to the halls of Congress-to breathe gripping relevance into TR's historic exhortation.

Pete Hegseth is a true leader of our conservative movement. When you get your copy of In the Arena: Good Citizens, A Great Republic, and How One Speech Can Reinvigorate America, you'll understand why. Order your copy now on Amazon.

Best,
