Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Gates Dawes: A Life is the first comprehensive biography of an American in whose fascinating story contemporary readers can follow the struggles and triumphs of early twentieth-century America and Europe. Dawes is most known today as vice president of the United States under Calvin Coolidge, but he also distinguished himself and his hometown of Evanston, Illinois, on the world stage with the 1925 Nobel Peace Prize. This engrossing biography traces how, when the punitive armistice that ended the First World War resulted in a disabled, restive Germany, Dawes’s diplomatic legerdemain averted war through a renegotiation of Germany’s debt repayments. Dawes’s diplomatic and political achievements, however, were only the illustrious capstones to a multifaceted career that included military service, law, finance, and business on the local, state, national, and global stages. In every arena of his life, he combined the social graces of the Gilded Age with the spirit of service of the Progressive Era. Despite his life of disciplined service, Dawes was an ebullient and irrepressible figure. Dawes’s salty language was often colorful fodder for tabloid and magazine writers of his era. In this captivating biography, Annette B. Dunlap recounts the story of an original American who enlightened and enlivened his world. This book was published in cooperation with the Evanston History Center and with generous support from the Tawani Foundation.

Book excerpt: Almost a century after the roaring twenties, the administration of Calvin Coolidge has faded into the annals of history, leaving the story of Vice President Charles Gates Dawes untold. A great-great grandson of William Dawes Jr., who rode with Paul Revere, his respect and reverence for American government guided his life of public service, a sense of duty lost in today's society. After becoming a successful businessman and banker in Chicago, Dawes had his first taste of federal politics as Comptroller of the Currency and close advisor to President McKinley, but he made a name for himself as an internationally recognized hero in World War I. Rising to the rank of Brigadier General, Dawes managed supply logistics for America's forces in Europe. The respect he gained working with European governments coupled with his economic policy experience made him an obvious choice to head the commission to plan the rebuilding of the post-war German economy and reparation timetable. The resulting "Dawes Plan" won the General a Nobel Peace Prize. Back home, the public filled every venue he came to speak as Dawes developed a reputation as a true American whose fiery rhetoric pressed politicians to keep their priorities straight with the slogan, "Country before party!" Because his own humility kept him from ascending to the Presidency, history books remember Charles Dawes not for his overwhelming accomplishments, but for his tenure in the most ill-defined job of the United States government.
