A VERY HANDY AND INTERESTING BOOK TO HAVE AROUND

This is one of those volumes you might want to add to your collection in that is is quite informative and quite concise. It covers the American Presidents from Washington through Clinton. Each section is devoted to one president. Each section leads with a selection of information such as birthdays, former employment or profession, their political careers, date of death and years served as President. Each then is given a short biography, well written, I might add, and summation of their administration. There are photographs throughout the book of each of these men. The first ladies are addressed and little interesting facts thrown in here and there. Each of these short chapters is not, of course, ment to be the beginning and end of all presidential biographies, they only present brief facts. These facts are given is such a way though, that you actually learn something. I like biographies. By having a brief sketch like this book offers, I am more able to make up my mind which full lenght biographies might interest me and which I might not like as well. As an example, I could care less about reading a biography of James Buchanan, but do like to know a bit about him. This book offers as much as I really wish to know. David Whitney had given us a very nice bit of helpful work here. Recommend this one highly.

An excellent reference book of American Presidents

Clear, compact and concise reference book of all the American Presidents. The main section of this book devotes a few pages on each President (from the 1st to the 42nd) with historical facts, dates and places. A small section at the back, lists such things as key facts about each President and Vice-President, the First Ladies and all Presidential Elections; also for anyone interested in the making of the Presidency or intend visiting presidential historic sites. A must on any book shelf for those interested in American Presidential history.

A well introduction of US president

For those who would like to know about US president for the first time, or for just support your knowledge, this book is excellent enough to fulfill your needs. A must buy for junior high students.
