Lewis B. Cuyler Lecture:
Grover Cleveland: A Man of Iron
The only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms, New Jersey-born Grover Cleveland retired to Princeton and is buried in Princeton Cemetery. Author Troy Senik will discuss Cleveland’s improbable rise – in just three years – from obscure lawyer to mayor of Buffalo, governor of New York, and finally, president of the United States. A headstrong executive who alienated Congress, political bosses, and even his own party, his stubbornness nevertheless became the key to his political appeal.
Free and open to the public. Registration is currently full. Please email eve@princetonhistory.org to add your name to the waitlist.
Labyrinth Books will have copies of the book for sale at the event.
