Wonderful book, very informative

This is a very well-written book with lots of imformation. More photos would very much enhance a fine book.

Presidential Compendium?

This is a great reference book about past presidents of the United States. Full of mini biographies and chronological listings of their accomplishments etc. I don't think we know enough about the character of the leaders of our country and how they shaped it to be what it is today.

Excellent book

This is an excellent book. It is great for people beginning to learn about American politics. It's a great source for quick handy reminders. It's a great gift. ( I bought seven copies for that reason). This would be a great book for teachers to have their high school students study. While it is not possible to have one book completely cover all the Presidents, this single volumn outlines many important events. There is an index in the back for quick searches. Political views? I have heard people claim this book is written with a Republican slant, and other claim it's written with a Democratic slant! Using the above paragraph, one would have to think it was pretty fairly written. I have went back to this book more often, during the election season, to brief my memory. As a single volumn book; I repeat, this is an excellent book.

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.
