Summary of Ryan S. Walters's The Jazz Age President
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 When World War I ended in November 1918, the world was different from what it had been in 1914. The general mindset before the war was that war was generally good, but the full-scale industrialized war that broke out in the summer of 1914 destroyed that notion forever. #2 The elation in the streets in the fall of 1918 was due in part to the fact that no one had believed the war would end so quickly. The still-green American doughboys, arriving by the thousands every day, had made the difference. #3 The end of the war was celebrated, but it was not the only thing that everyone was celebrating. The Spanish flu had devastated troop encampments in Europe and then spread worldwide. It is thought that more than a quarter of the entire American population was infected, with as many as 675,000 dead in influenza hospitals. #4 The Treaty of Versailles was extremely difficult to ratify in the United States. It redrew the map of Europe, created nine new nations, placed the blame for the war on Germany, and created Wilson’s League of Nations, a precursor to the United Nations.
Harding
"Presidents are ranked wrong. In Harding: The Jazz Age President, Ryan Walters mounts a case that Harding deserves to move up—and supplies the evidence to make that case strong. -Amity Shlaes, bestselling author of Coolidge He's the butt of political jokes, frequently subjected to ridicule, and almost never absent a "Worst Presidents" list where he most often ends up at the bottom. Historians have labeled him the "Worst President Ever," "Dead Last," "Unfit," and "Incompetent," to name but a few. Many contemporaries were equally cruel. H. L. Mencken called him a "nitwit." To Alice Roosevelt Longworth, he was a "slob." Such is the current reputation of our 29th President, Warren Gamaliel Harding. In an interesting survey in 1982, which divided the scholarly respondents into "conservative" and "liberal" categories, both groups picked Harding as the worst President. But historian Ryan Walters shows that Harding, a humble man from Marion, Ohio, has been unfairly remembered. He quickly fixed an economy in depression and started the boom of the Roaring Twenties, healed a nation in the throes of social disruption, and reversed America’s interventionist foreign policy.

The Vital Birth Records of Nashua, New Hampshire, 1887-1935
This information was taken from the published City of Nashua, New Hampshire Annual Reports. There were many births at home during this period that were not registered in the year of birth but were later reported to the city clerk. These late recordings were never recorded in subsequent annual reports. (To find out about these births one would have to make a request to the Nashua city clerk.) The births are recorded as follows: last name, first name, date of birth, gender, birth number of child in family, father's name and place of birth, mother's name and place of birth. Finally, colored or stillborn children are so designated at the end of the entry. The information is presented in an easy-to-use alphabetical format.
