lightest wear to the book and jacket. First printing, full number line. Why Coolidge Matters is a collection of essays asserting Coolidge's lasting value for American life and poliitics. Whether it's Governor of Vermont James A. Douglas urging that "every one of us could use a little Coolidge now and again," former Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis admitting it was a pleasant accident to discover "Silent Cal," Senator John F. Kerry arguing America needs a Calvin Coolidge today to restore faith in politics or Governor of Connecticut M. Jodi Rell speaking to the enduring traits of Coolidge's legacy, the 21 unique prespectives authored by political leaders, journalists, historians and prominent public voices in Why Coolidge Matters present the ideas and ideals of a man who is often dismissed, misquoted, stereotyped and under-appreciated. Representing the 4.8 million Notaries Public of the United States, the National Notary Association has published Why Coolidge Matters to honor our nation's only President to have been sworn into office by a Notary Public - his father, no less - at the family homestead in Plymouth Notch, Vermont, and whose commitment to service and integrity can guide us all.
