Written by In the latest episode of AEI’s Banter, Stu and Andrew talk loudly about Silent Calvin Coolidge. Amity Shlaes, author of the new book, Coolidge, makes the case that the 30th president remains an important figure for us to learn from. She discusses his background, his rise to the presidency, what motivated him, and how his understanding of economics remains relevant today. Stu also takes a few minutes to discuss Jake Tapper’s book, The Outpost. Enjoy!
