Grover Cleveland a Record of Friendship edition by Richard Watson Gilder Literature Fiction eBooks
Most books about Grover Cleveland suffer from the same problem - no matter how hard the author tries, there is an unavoidable distance between the biographer and his subject. This is inevitable, given the carelessness with which President Cleveland preserved documents from his life, the general aloofness with which he greeted any attempts to discover more about him, and the antipathy with which he was viewed by most of his contemporaries post-1897 (when the times seemed to have evolved beyond him). Richard Watson Gilder was a close friend of President Cleveland, however, and his memoirs here provide us with something that is very hard to find elsewhere - a up-close-and-personal look at the man himself. From breezy anecdotes about fishing and children to accounts of Cleveland's mind and emotional state during the most trying periods of his presidency, this book is about as comprehensive a look at the character of the man as one could hope for.Product details
