Rick Atkinson ‘The Guns at Last Light’ Video Series – Ted Roosevelt

Pulitzer Prize winner and best-selling author, Rick Atkinson (An Army at Dawn, The Day of Battle) sat down with Museum President and CEO, Dr. Nick Mueller, to offer a series of “sneak peek” videos for the final book in his epic “Liberation Trilogy,” The Guns at Last Light.

In our second installment, the author introduces us to the accomplished Bridger General Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. — son of 26th President of the United States Theodore Roosevelt — relating stories of heroism and his constant struggle to break free of the shadow of his father.

Museum insiders have the exclusive opportunity to get The Guns at Last Light on May 8, V-E Day, at a pre-release event here at The National WWII Museum in New Orleans, a week before the May 14 public release. You won’t want to miss this free event, which also includes a presentation by the author. RSVP now to ensure your spot.

If you cannot join us here for the event, you can still pre-order a signed copy of The Guns at Last Light from the Museum Store. All purchases fund the Museum’s educational mission.
