Century of Free Speech at the City Club of Cleveland

In A Century of Free Speech at the City Club of Cleveland, author Carol Poh tells the story of the City Club of Cleveland and its highly regarded City Club Forum. Since 1912, club members and guests have convened each week for lunch and a presentation by a distinguished speaker, followed by an often lively, always unscreened Q and A. Part One recounts the history of a “social club with a civic purpose,” founded in one of the nation’s preeminent industrial cities during the Progressive Era, and the challenges it faced as it evolved to become a national model of civic engagement and civil discourse. Part Two features a lively roundup of the newsmakers from every field of human endeavor who have addressed the club during the past quarter century. Extended profiles of selected speakers, from the little known to the world famous, including three sitting presidents, portray the often vibrant drama to be found at Cleveland’s City Club Forum. The book is lavishly illustrated with both historic photographs and penetrating speaker portraits by the club’s longtime photographer Sam Adamo.
