For citizens of the United States, for social studies teachers, for historians in America, and literally around the world, there is no more interesting topic than leadership, and leadership as seen in the President of the United States. Worldwide, no other individual is as scrutinized, as examined as the President of the USA. The Presidency has obviously a long history dated back to 1776 and George Washington, and out leaders have provided the guidance to lead us through the War of 1812, the Spanish American War, the Civil War, World War I and II and various other undeclared conflicts and difficulties around the world.

The personalities and contributions of our Presidents have been exceptional. Some of our Presidents have led us in times of peace, and others during times of war. Some have excelled nationally, others internationally. Some have provided sustenance and nurturance, and others vim,vigor, and vitality during difficult times.

Each President has left an indelible mark on American history and should be recognized. This book attempts to provide a stellar overview of each President and recognize their contributions, strengths, weaknesses as well as their faults.
This is a book that will provide keen robust insights into the men who have led our nation. (Imprint: Nova)
