Síntesis:
Grover Cleveland, the honest, principled, plain-spoken, and incorruptible twenty-second and twenty-fourth president, has largely been forgotten. His political career was a dizzying journey, rising from obscure lawyer to president of the United States in just three years. The most successful Democratic politician of his era, he came to be remembered most fondly by Republicans. Senik explores Cleveland's life and career: presiding over a transitional era, and the only president to serve two non-consecutive terms. -- adapted from jacket
