The Collected Works of William Howard Taft, Volume IV - Presidential Messages to Congress

Providing a window on his leadership, this collection presents Taft's messages to the legislative branch of Congress and concerns some of the pressing issues of the day. He was often at odds with a somewhat reactionary Congress, causing him to veto legislation that he thought unwise.
