The Rough Riders were a group of American soldiers in the
Spanish-American War who were led by Theodore “Teddy”
Roosevelt (standing in center). Prior to the war, Roosevelt had
served as an assistant secretary of the navy. He sometimes
spoke out about the need for the United States to help Cuba.
When it became clear that the United States would be involved
in a war, Roosevelt quit his job and, along with army surgeon
Leonard Wood, formed the First United States Volunteer Cavalry.
The troop soon became known as the Rough Riders because
it was made up of many cowboys, hunters, and outdoorsmen
from the western United States. Large numbers of Native
Americans and African Americans also joined the troop. The
Rough Riders trained for only one month before they were sent
into battle. They helped the United States gain control of Cuba.
In 1899, Roosevelt published a book called Rough Riders, which
included his personal story about his adventures in battle.
