✦ Synopsis

Calvin Coolidge is one of our most underrated presidents. What principles of governance for our own time might we discern from examining his record, writings, and life? Coolidge's thought on topics like public sector unions, education, race, governance, immigration, and foreign policy requires restoration if our constitutional, industrial republic is to be preserved in the modern age.
