Herbert Hoover - President of the United States

Reveals Herbert Hoover as a staunch defender of constitutional government and one of the US's least understood presidents. Battling political partisanship while trying to place the needs of the nation over those of state and localities, Hoover found his programme for America's entry into the new scientific era overwhelmed by changes in the social and economic structure of a nation entering a new age.
