James Couzens was a liberal Republican progressive that ended up in full support of the New Deal. In general he stood for what he believed in and didn't take direction from any special interests. The book makes it seem like he was truly a public servant but others tend to dismiss him as an mean-spirited and cold man. The book is definitely dated and had surprisingly few details about his personal life or how he actually accomplished what he did. Depending on how important his career actually is in US History, I think someone should take another shot at a biography of him.
