Descriere magazin:
In The Presidents Decoded: A Guide to the Leaders Who Shaped Our Nation, author Katie Kennedy presents the 45 people who have held the role of President of the United States. From George Washington to Joe Biden, each leader\'s time in office is broken down and explained through primary sources--documents, letters, policies, and diaries--that show the what, how and why of our leaders\' thoughts, decisions and policies. Familiar documents like the preamble of the Declaration of Independence, The Emancipation Proclamation, and The Fugitive Slave Act -- the part of the Compromise of 1850 that set the country on a path to Civil War -- are included. But we\'ve also included things like George Washington\'s letter to Martha as he learns that he\'s been chosen to be the General of the Continental Army, the types of letters FDR received from desperate families during the Great Depression, a letter from baseball legend Jackie Robinson urging JFK to do more to push for civil rights, and the Executive Order limiting the hours of the federal work day, are only a handful of the examples included in this book. Full-color illustrations bring each president and their time in office to life on the page in their career-defining moments as history marches forward and changes the job -- and the way of life -- through inventions like the camera, the telephone, the first metal detector, services like the Navy and the Red Cross begin, and Twitter. As she did in THE CONSTITUTION DECODED, Katie Kennedy shines a light on American History through the lens of the leaders who shaped our nation--good, bad, and everything in between--through the documents that confirm what really happened. Ever wonder what the President does? Meet the 45* people who have held the job in this important book that showcases how they each led the country in their time--and features their own thoughts and words through their documents, letters, diaries, speeches and so much more. Some call it the most important job in the world. It\'s certainly the most powerful. And it\'s one that every citizen needs to know about because we\'re the ones who vote to put a president in office. Lively, informative, filled with firsts and facts, big ideas and compelling anecdotes, The Presidents Decoded, is a richly layered guide to the leaders who have shaped our nation. Featuring over 125 primary sources--including documents, speeches, letters, executive orders and diaries--each leader\'s time in office is broken down and expl
