PRESIDENTIAL DOODLES David Greenberg

A doodle is an "unconscious" drawing or etching made anywhere on anything while the "conscious" mind is concentrating on things elsewhere. This book lists and illustrates an amazing collection of doodles made by USA Presidents before, during and after holding office often just prior or almost at decision time in their role in history. For the layman they open up a completely new perspective on the man while for a practising graphologist like myself they reveal the real, inner man and their aims at that historic moment of time. If you want to learn more about how a president's mind may have been working at various stages along the way get a copy of this book and you will cerainly learn more about the man. Recommended.
