William McKinley
William McKinley, while more famously known as the 25th President of the United States, was not primarily a writer, though his speeches and addresses have been documented and analyzed. His writings mostly focused on political discourse, including policy statements and public letters, particularly during his presidential campaigns and tenure. McKinley's leadership during the Spanish-American War and his advocacy for protective tariffs are recurrent themes in the documents attributed to him. Though not recognized for literary works, his speeches, like the ones on tariffs and foreign policy, have historical significance.
