The Autobiography of Calvin Coolidge
What a great read! Thanks to Connie for loaning me this book. I had always been interested in him, trusting that there must be more to this man than all the jokes. I was fascinated by his life in rural Vermont, his education at Amherst College, and the pathway of providence that led him to the presidency. Also struck by his account that after the shocking death of his son from blood poisoning, the presidency lost all of its attraction to him.
