Why did Theodore Roosevelt return to New York in 1887?
A. He was passionate for a return to politics.
B. To join the navy.
C. He tired of bad weather that wiped out his cattle.
D. He had inherited a large fortune.
After the uniquely severe U.S. winter of 1886-1887 wiped out his herd of cattle and his $60,000 investment (together with those of his competitors), he returned to the East, where in 1885 he had built Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay, New York. It would be his home and estate until his death.
