DOUG’S Q-C COLLECTIBLES: ‘Roosevelt’ autographed book for a Moline woman

Dear Doug: We have a book, “The Simple Life” by Charles Wagner published by McClure Phillips & Co. It was translated from French by Mary Louise Hendee with an introduction and biographical sketch by Grace King. The book is 7 inches by 5 inches and a hardcover. Handwritten in the front is the original owner’s name and address (924 17th St., Moline), dated 1902. The book was sent by President (Theodore) Roosevelt to her as a gift and signed by him. He also wrote a note expressing his opinion of the book. Is there any way to confirm the authenticity of the book and the signature?
