这一挑衅性的研究探讨了西奥多罗斯福的种族思想，特别是他对黑人，美洲印第安人，移民和帝国主义的态度。托马斯G.戴尔对罗斯福思想的正式和非正式方面给予了仔细的关注，这体现在他大量出版的作品和个人论文中。戴尔的书提出了一些重要的问题。在罗斯福的态度中，流行思想和正式的种族理论占多大比例？他对种族问题的思考是在什么样的知识背景下进行的？他的种族思想是如何与更广泛的智力活动领域，如自然科学和社会哲学？罗斯福如何看待各种白色和非白色族群？罗斯福的种族思想如何符合十九世纪末二十世纪初的主流哲学？历史学家们对西奥多·罗斯福种族意识形态的性质历来意见不一。戴尔的启发性研究澄清了许多相关问题，将罗斯福的种族理论视为一个完整的整体。
This provocative study examines Theodore Roosevelt's ideas about race, focusing especially on his attitude toward blacks, American Indians, immigration, and imperialism. Thomas G. Dyer gives careful attention to formal and nonformal aspects of Roosevelt's thought, as revealed in his voluminous published works and personal papers. Dyer's book asks a number of important questions. In what proportions do popular thought and formal racial theory appear in Roosevelt's attitudes? What was the intellectual context of his speculations on race? How was his racial thought related to broader areas of intellectual activity such as natural science and social philosophy? How did Roosevelt regard various white and nonwhite ethnic groups? How did Roosevelt's racial thought conform to the prevailing philosophies of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries? Historians have traditionally disagreed about the character of Theodore Roosevelt's racial ideology. Dyer's illuminating study clarifies many of the relevant issues by viewing Roosevelt's racial theory as an integrated whole.
