Herbert Hoover and American Individualism: A Modern Interpretation of a National Ideal is a non-fiction book written by Walter Friar Dexter. The book is a comprehensive analysis of the life and political ideology of Herbert Hoover, the 31st President of the United States. Dexter explores how Hoover's commitment to individualism shaped his personal and political beliefs, and how this ideology influenced his policies during his presidency.The book delves into Hoover's early life, his education, and his career as a mining engineer, which gave him a unique perspective on the importance of individual initiative and self-reliance. Dexter also examines Hoover's role as a humanitarian during World War I and his efforts to provide relief to war-torn Europe.The book provides a detailed analysis of Hoover's presidency, including his response to the Great Depression and his efforts to promote economic recovery through individual initiative and private enterprise. Dexter also explores Hoover's foreign policy, including his efforts to promote disarmament and his response to the rise of fascism in Europe.Throughout the book, Dexter provides a nuanced and modern interpretation of Hoover's commitment to individualism, arguing that it was a complex and nuanced ideology that cannot be reduced to simplistic caricatures. The book is well-researched and provides a valuable contribution to the study of American political history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
