SIDELIGHTS: Warren G. Harding III told CA: "I write for enjoyment, satisfaction, and to present ideas that I believe are important to the public. I am particularly interested in presenting honest, balanced, and complete information regarding my grandfather's brother, U.S. President Warren G. Harding. The original publication of Our Common Country was in 1921. It is difficult to find, and therefore is relatively unknown, even to presidential historians."
