Ok, so I may be a nerd. I decided that one of my goals is to read a book about every one of our presidents. As Austin Powers said, "NERD ALERT!!!"
Anyways, I am having trouble researching books. There are a few books that I have in mind and a few that I read. Im really not looking for a focus on their life growing up although books will have chapters regarding such. I'm looking for those that disuss the political and social climate during their presidencies and their policies, conflicts, etc...
Below are books that i have read. I am looking for good books for the other presidents. Any suggestions for other presidents would be greatly appreciated so I can reach my goal at some point.
I am also looking for a good book havng to do with the history of the democratic party and it;s evolution over the course of history.
Andrew Jackson - "American Lion"
Abraham Lincoln - "Team of Rivals"
FDR - "Defining Moment"
RFK - "Last Campaign" (I know..not a president, but still a great book)
Nixon - "Nixonland"
George W Bush - read a crapload of Bush books
I dont want to take up space for other diarists, so i will delete once a bunch of suggestions are made.
Thanks a bunch!!
