An Old-Fashioned Senator, Orville H. Platt Of Connecticut: The Story Of A Life Unselfishly Devoted To The Public Service is a biography written by Louis Arthur Coolidge. The book details the life of Orville H. Platt, a senator from Connecticut who served in the United States Senate for 34 years. The author highlights Platt's dedication to public service, his commitment to the people of Connecticut, and his contributions to the development of the state and the country. The book also delves into Platt's political career, including his role in the passage of the Platt Amendment, which established the United States' authority over Cuba and helped to shape American foreign policy in the early 20th century. Through extensive research and interviews with Platt's contemporaries, Coolidge provides a comprehensive account of the senator's life, including his personal struggles and triumphs. Overall, An Old-Fashioned Senator is a fascinating portrait of a man who dedicated his life to serving his country and his fellow citizens.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
