Description

What better way to study the presidents of the United States than through an exploration of the times in which they lived and served? Presidents and Their Times examines the life and times of each president, placing each within his historical and cultural context, while at the same time focusing on the major events that occurred during each president's administration. This in-depth series delves into the time period and formative events of each president's term, revealing childhood character-building experiences, entry into politics, major events of the presidency, and a look at life after the presidency. With its clearly written and accessible text, primary sources, and vivid historical photographs, this series will bring to the forefront the life and times of the presidents of the United States.
