Rating the Best and the Worst in the White House
Paperback
Publication Date: 05/12/2005
Edited by a prominent Wall Street Journal editor and a distinguished Federalist Society thinker, PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP, the first comprehensive book of its kind that rates U.S. presidents, includes an updated chapter on George W. Bush and his first term in office. The only national survey published in book form, it features multiple categories of best and worst rankings, most over- and underrated, and most controversial, to name a few, along with essays on each president and his leadership abilities. A variety of historians, scholars, journalists and current and former government officials weigh in with their opinions, from Jay Winik on Lincoln, Lynne Cheney on Madison, and John McCain on Theodore Roosevelt to Robert Bork on FDR, Kenneth Starr on Nixon, and Peggy Noonan on JFK. With William Bennett providing an engaging Foreword, readers can also enjoy provocative essays on the individual qualities essential for a Commander-in-Chief. Whether one is liberal, conservative, or anywhere in between, PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP is an informative and engaging resource about the successes, failures and final legacies of the inhabitants of the Oval Office.
