Grover Cleveland

 


Grover ClevelandGrover Cleveland (1837-1908) is unique among Presidents of the United States because he was the only President to serve for two non-consecutive terms, from 1885 to 1889 and then again from 1893 to 1897. He was therefore the 22nd and the 24th President of the United States.

Cleveland was a pro-business Democrat who argued for free trade and gained a reputation for honesty and independence. His second term in office was hit by an economic depression and his Party lost the next election heavily. He died in 1917 and his last words were: 'I have tried so hard to do right'.
