Zustand: FINE. First printing. An attractive and information book produced in association with The Society of American Historians, this contains illustrated essays on the 41 men who have served as President of the United States, from George Washington to Bill Clinton. As the introduction notes, some of these reflect a re-appraisal of the accomplishments (or lack thereof) of some of the Presidents - notably Grant and Coolidge - based on current scholarship: none of the essays are wholly uncritical, none are a whitewash. The contributors include Joseph Ellis, Thomas Fleming, Hans Trefousse, Allen Weinstein, James Chance, Catherine Clinton, Susan Ware, Robert Dallek, Herbert Parmet, Richard Reeves, Tom Wicker, Evan Thomas and others.
