Calvin Coolidge - The Man from Vermont
About this book
This vintage book contains a detailed biography of Calvin Coolidge. John Calvin Coolidge Jr. (1872–1933) served as the President of the United States between 1923 and 1929. Originally a Republican lawyer from Vermont, he worked his way up the political ladder before becoming the governor of Massachusetts. He was elected as the vice president of the United States after his decisive response to the Boston Police Strike of 1919, and succeeded president Warren G. Harding upon his death in 1923. Contents include: "Yankee Ancestry and Vermont Environment", "Birth and Boyhood", "Preparing for College", "Early Days in Northampton", "The Horizon Widens", "Up The Political Ladder", "A Friend Appears", "Lieutenant Governor", "Governor of Massachusetts", "The Boston Police Strike of 1919", "In National Politics", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction. "Calvin Coolidge - The Man From Vermont" was first published in 1939.
