Book excerpt: Grover Cleveland - Life and Times of a Non-Consecutive President is the biography of Grover Cleveland, the twenty-second and twenty-fourth President of the United States. Cleveland is the only President to serve two non-consecutive terms (1885-1889 and 1893-1897). He was the winner of the popular vote for President three times - in 1884, 1888, and 1892 - and was the only Democrat elected to the Presidency in the era of Republican political domination that lasted from 1860 to 1912. Cleveland's admirers praise him for his honesty, independence, integrity, and commitment to the principles of classical liberalism. As a leader of the Bourbon Democrats, he opposed imperialism, taxes, subsidies and inflationary policies, but as a reformer he also worked against corruption, patronage, and bossism. Grover Cleveland - Life and Times of a Non-Consecutive President is highly recommended for those interested in reading more about the life of President Grover Cleveland.

Book excerpt: “A thoroughly engaging and enjoyable” (National Review) biography of Grover Cleveland—the honest, principled, and plain-spoken president whose country has largely overlooked him. “Entertaining and astute” (Booklist), A Man of Iron explores the remarkable life and extraordinary career of Grover Cleveland—one of America’s most unusual presidents and the only one to serve two non-consecutive terms. Grover Cleveland’s political career—a dizzying journey that saw him rise from obscure lawyer to president of the United States in just three years—was marked by contradictions. A politician of uncharacteristic honesty and principle, he was nevertheless dogged by secrets from his personal life. A believer in limited government, he pushed presidential power to its limits to combat a crippling depression, suppress labor unrest, and resist the forces of American imperialism. A headstrong executive who alienated Congress, political bosses, and even his own party, his stubbornness nevertheless became the key to his political appeal. The most successful Democratic politician of his era, he came to be remembered most fondly by Republicans. “With prodigious research, rich detail…and lively prose” (The Free Lance-Star, Virginia), A Man of Iron is a compelling and vivid biography joining the ranks of presidential classics such as David McCullough’s John Adams, Ron Chernow’s Grant, and Amity Shlaes’s Coolidge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1897, when Grover Cleveland left office after his second term as President of the United States, eight other Democrats have been elected to the nation's highest office. What differentiates Cleveland from his Democratic successors? He was a "true Conservative." Cleveland advocated limited government, states' rights, frugal economic principles, strict interpretation of the Constitution, sound currency, low taxes, tariff reduction, a balanced budget, the absence of national debt, and a non-interventionist foreign policy. A self-made man, Cleveland believed that if the federal government provided assistance to any particular group, it would foster a state of dependency that would unfairly punish American taxpayers. Cleveland's political ascendency was truly remarkable. In the span of just three years, he was elected, in succession, as the Mayor of Buffalo, Governor of New York, and President of the United States. Decidedly opposed to big government, Cleveland backed his philosophy with action. Opposing what were deemed as unnecessary appropriations by the legislative branches of both local and state governments, Cleveland earned the reputation as the "Veto Mayor" and the "Veto Governor." During his two terms as President, he repeatedly stalemated Congress, vetoing 584 bills; more than the combined total (204 vetoes) of the 21 Chief Executives who preceded him. Amazingly, Congress managed to override only seven of Cleveland's vetoes. Cleveland's two terms as President are marked by a plethora of firsts. He remains the only person in history to win non-consecutive terms to the presidency. The uncertainty about chronicity eventually led Congress to pass a resolution formally designating Cleveland as the 22nd and 24th President of the United States. Cleveland, Andrew Jackson, and Franklin Roosevelt are the only presidential candidates to win a majority of the popular vote in three consecutive presidential elections (Roosevelt actually won four consecutive races). Like Jackson, Samuel Tilden, and Al Gore, Cleveland had the unfortunate, but historical distinction of winning the popular vote in a presidential election, while finishing second in the Electoral College. Cleveland is the only President of the United States to have actively participated in an execution, while serving as Sheriff of Erie County, New York. To date, Cleveland is the only man ever to be married in the White House. His 21-year-old wife, Frances (27 years his junior and the nation's youngest First Lady), is the only woman to ever give birth in the White House. "Grover Cleveland: The Last Conservative Democratic President" chronicles the life and times of a man who placed principle above politics, and whose core Conservatism has yet to be matched by subsequent Democratic Presidents.
