Taft, the 27th President of the United States and later the 10th Chief Justice of the United States, embodied a unique perspective on the interface between ethics, law, and governance. His prolific career laid the foundation for 'Ethics in Service,' in which he distilled the wisdom accrued over years of public service. The book is an expression of Taft's earnest belief in the principles of honesty, accountability, and service that spurred his aspirations for the nation he served. Scholars, historians, and those invested in the ethical dimensions of public life will find great value in Taft's pragmatic approach. His insights into what constitutes ethical behavior in service to one's country speak not only to the recognizable renown of his career but also to the timeless imperative of ethical stewardship in any era. 'Ethics in Service' is thus recommended for those who seek to understand the moral imperatives that have guided leaders in the past and for those aspiring to resonate those principles in today's world. It is as much a primer for the ethical conundrums of modern governance as it is a historical document of the legacy Taft hoped to impart.
