Norwalk, Conn: Easton Press, 1986. Fine/No Dust Jacket As Issued.

The books and gilt are fine, Easton Press Bookplates attached on the front pastedowns. Both Collector Notes present. Accented in 22kt gold, printed on archival paper with gilded edges, smyth sewing & concealed muslin joints. Bound In full leather with hubbed spines. . Mr. Nevins presents the life story of a remarkable figure, Grover Cleveland, revealing both his limitations and strengths. Cleveland lacked the charisma of a popular orator and his writing style carried the heaviness of legal jargon.

Despite this, he coined phrases that remain in political discourse and showed integrity by shunning political manipulation. Though often tactless in dealing with fellow party members, he demonstrated a strong instinct for important public policies, even against cautious advice.

His reputation for fearlessness and integrity endeared him to the American people, who admired his unwavering commitment to righteousness and justice. Cleveland's success was not due to genius or charm, but to the sheer force of his character.
