The American Presidency: Origins and Development, 1776-2000

Rating:
Summary: Everything you wanted to know about the presidency...
Review: ...but were afraid to ask. Comprehensive, readable, well-organized. A must-have for every serious scholar of the presidency, certainly. I think it will also prove very useful to the intended audience as a textbook for courses on the American presidency, especially those looking at it from a historical angle. Well-written and a page turner, which is a rarity in political science.
