biographies of our Presidents
« on: September 11, 2008, 10:24:51 PM »
Was thinking of starting a new reading project:

Read 2 biographies of each of our Presidents.
If you have any recommendations for books which you've already finished reading, make a post. I'll add them to my list. :)

And actually, I should probably make it 3 biographies each.  That way each of my kids can take a complete set of them with when they leave the house.

Reagan's war, i thought, was an excellent book about a great president.

Try to pick up a copy of "Washington:  the Indispensable Man" by James Thomas Flexner.  One of the best one volume biographies about our first president.
