Description
Independent Man: The Life Of Senator James Couzens is a biography written by Harry Barnard that explores the life of James Couzens, a prominent American politician and businessman of the early 20th century. Couzens was born in Canada in 1872 and moved to Detroit as a young man, where he eventually became a successful automobile manufacturer and co-founder of the Ford Motor Company. The book delves into Couzens' political career as a United States Senator from Michigan, where he was known for his independent and often controversial views. Couzens was a staunch opponent of the New Deal policies of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and was also critical of the policies of his own party, the Republican Party. Barnard's biography provides a detailed account of Couzens' personal life, his business dealings, and his political career, offering insight into the challenges and triumphs of one of America's most influential figures. The book also explores Couzens' philanthropic efforts, including his founding of the Children's Fund of Michigan and his contributions to the development of the Detroit Zoo. Overall, Independent Man: The Life Of Senator James Couzens is a comprehensive and engaging biography that sheds light on the life and legacy of a fascinating and complex figure in American history.Self-Made Man, Partner of Henry Ford, Republican Senator From Michigan, Critic Of Calvin Coolidge, Castigator Of Andrew Mellon, Defender Of The New Deal.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
