Grover Cleveland

Grover Cleveland
Grover Cleveland, the 22nd and 24th president of the United States, was known primarily as a political figure rather than a writer. However, he authored a book titled "Presidential Problems" in 1904, which discussed key issues he faced during his presidency, such as foreign relations and economic challenges. Cleveland was admired for his straightforward and honest approach to politics, and his writings reflect his belief in constitutional governance and limited executive power. Although not prolific in literature, his work provides insight into the political landscape of late 19th-century America.
