Theodore Roosevelt served as the 26th president of the United States from 1901-1909. His face is on Mount Rushmore and is generally ranked in polls of historians and political scientists as one of the five best presidents. He was proudest of his work in conservation of natural resources and extending federal protection to land and wildlife. During his tenure as president, he established 150 national forests, 51 federal bird reserves, 4 national game preserves, 5 national parks and 18 national monuments. [Source: Wikipedia]
