It is beyond question that Gerald R. Ford, the thirty-eighth President of the United States, brought honesty and integrity back into the White House at a time when the country needed those qualities and, in doing so, he restored a sense of calm to a troubled and anxious country. He embodied the qualities and virtues of the American heartland and put these into practice in his public life. Gerald Ford was the All-American President. This new book places President Gerald Ford in his proper position within the American pantheon and concentrates on Ford as a solid Midwesterner who fairly radiated integrity and used his talent to earn high political office.
