Event

Presidents Book Group

Do you want to deepen your understanding of the American presidency? Then join the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Library & Museum's new Presidential Book Group! We will be tracing the history of the presidency, beginning with George Washington, and watching how American democracy evolved in ways the Founders never anticipated. We'll follow how presidents, both celebrated and forgotten, grappled with slavery, economics, executive power and America's role in the world. In doing so, we'll broaden our knowledge of Coolidge, how he determined the course of the modern Republican Party, and where his presidency fits in the American story. 

We will meet once every other month, beginning on Monday February 25th, 2019 (one week after Washington's birthday!) at 7:30 PM in the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Library and Museum. Our first book will be, "An Imperfect God: George Washington, His Slaves, and the Creation of America," by Henry Wiencek.
