| Abstract
|
:
|
"The American Presidents is a collection of articles that analyze and evaluate the presidential careers of the men who have occupied the office since its inception in 1789. In this volume the leading presidential historians in the United States offer insights into what makes a president great, mediocre, or - in the case of most of them - something in between."--Jacket.
