The conference revisited the evidence on this stereotype and a whole new image of Calvin Coolidge emerged.

I attended the celebration in Northampton and in Plymouth Notch at which various participants in the conference gave summary reports on the real Calvin Coolidge – not the one portrayed by William Allen White!

The video and other recordings of the talks given at this conference are available at Forbes Library in the Archives Room attached to the Museum.

The Calvin Coolidge described in my article is the real Calvin Coolidge that an honest and thorough examination of eyewitnesses and written records indicate.
