The Roaring 1920s
Calvin Coolidge Memorial Foundation
Located in Plymouth Notch, Vermont, the Foundation holds this site in part to redress the absence of a Coolidge presidential liberary. The website contains numerous primary and secondary sources on President Coolidge, most notably a full-text database of his speeches. The site also maintains links to other Coolidge related archives.
Coolidge and Consumer Economy (Library of Congress American Memory collections):
Prosperity and Thrift: The Coolidge Era and the Consumer Economy, 1921-1929 assembles a wide array of Library of Congress source materials from the 1920s that document the widespread prosperity of the Coolidge years, the nation's transition to a mass consumer economy, and the role of government in this transition.
