A review by aks_maine
Coolidge by Amity Shlaes

2.0

I was excited to read this, since I knew next to nothing about Calvin Coolidge and am all about history. But as I completed the first sentence of the introduction, I realized that this might not be the best book ever written. I read a lot of history, so I know that less than popular topics can be brought to life, but this book just didn't deliver. There are bits and pieces that are semi-interesting, but this really isn't worth the time. The writing is disjointed, the subject matter poorly organized, and not very well edited.
