Leading the Republican ticket was Calvin Coolidge, who had ascended to the presidency a year earlier, on the death of Warren Harding. The Democrats chose John W. Davis as their standard bearer. Little remembered today, Davis was a brilliant lawyer who had served as congressman, solicitor general of the United States, and ambassador to Great Britain. 1924 provides a fascinating look at this pivotal but largely forgotten election. Garland S. Tucker III's page-turning history reveals how both Coolidge and Davis articulated a philosophy of limited government and individual freedom."--Dust jacket. 600 10 $a Coolidge, Calvin, $d 1872-1933. 600 10 $a Davis, John W. $q (John William), $d 1873-1955. 650 0 $a Presidents $z United States $x Election $y 1924. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1923-1929. 650 0 $a Conservatism $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Presidential candidates $z United States $v Biography. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011329.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=50B0E1FC2E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
