Created in 1912, this satirical cartoon showcases an army scene with a large group of soldiers led by none other than Theodore Roosevelt himself. The illustration cleverly draws parallels between Roosevelt and Napoleon Bonaparte, two influential figures known for their charismatic leadership and military prowess.
