Roosevelt writes to Mr. A.G. Wallihan in Cora, Wyoming, in part: ...."I will at once communicate with Mr. Grinell, and I hope the card can be published forthwith. Remember me to Mrs. Wallihan. I hope I may soon meet you both; and that we may be able to work together in some literary work where we don't have to guard against a third party who bisbeaves (sic) himself...."

The Wallihan's were well known wildlife photographers in the late 19th and early 20th century. Roosevelt wrote the introduction for Wallihan’s first photo book in 1894 as well as for their follow-up book in 1901. Not long after Roosevelt’s presidential inauguration in 1905, the Wallihan's visited the White House as his personal guests.
