In \u003ci\u003eHarding: The Jazz Age President\u003c\/i\u003e, 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 \u003ci\u003eCoolidge\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHe'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, \u003ci\u003eboth\u003c\/i\u003e groups picked Harding as the worst President. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRyan S.
