Celebrate "President's Day" with a good book! These are some of the current, best-selling books about U.S. Presidents in the order in which they served in office.
Oh, and we couldn't resist throwing one in about the first ladies too!
Julie notes "The title "His Excellency: George Washington" refers to the debate our founding fathers had over how the President should be addressed - "His Excellency" or "Mr. President." We know how that debate was resolved, but there is still much to learn about the first President and how he shaped the office."
Julie notes "After being the topic of an HBO mini-series in recent years, John Adams is still a popular topic of discussion today. This biography of the nation's second President is definitely worth a read."
Julie notes "This collection of letters between Thomas Jefferson and John and Abigail Adams reveals much about the sometimes allies, sometimes political enemies."
Julie notes "Many biographies have been written about Lincoln and his presidency. "Tried by War: Abraham Lincoln as Commander in Chief" is a particularly well researched, in depth look at Lincoln during the Civil War."
Julie notes ""The River of Doubt: Theodore Roosevelt's Darkest Journey" details the significant, personal challenges Theodore Roosevelt overcame to become known as one of the strongest and first modern President of the nation."
Julie notes "Some of the photos in "Remember Jack: Intimate and Unseen Photographs of the Kennedys" have never been published in any other collection. It is a beautiful and intimate portrait of this first family."
Julie notes "Did you know Nixon watched hundreds of movies during his presidency? "Nixon at the Movies: A Book about Belief" is a quirky biography that shows the impact movies may have had on Nixon's time in office."
Julie notes ""Reagan on Leadership: Executive Lessons from the Great Communicator" is a book about leadership lessons we can all learn from the Gipper."
Julie notes "This collection is a unique look at the presidency of Bill Clinton through his own words and the words of those who knew him best during his two terms in office"
Julie notes ""The First Ladies Fact Book: The Stories of the Women of the White House from Martha Washington to Laura Bush" contains many pieces of information you may have never heard about some of the most powerful and strong women in our country's history. At the very least, this book can provide good information to start dinner party conversation!"
