Recently Read - (not for release):
Dearest Friend - A Life of Abigail Adams by Lynne Withey
This is OpalDragonfly's PC and I will return to her at our next meetup. This was an interesting book on the wife of our 2nd US President.

My personal reading goal is to read and add to my PC a book of each President of the USA. I would like to know more about how they were as people, ie, their young life before becoming President and their personalities. Of course, I also would like to know how they acted and thought once they became President and their retirement years.

I welcome any suggestions of books that fit my criteria on any Presidents I have not yet added to my PC collection.

To Date I have read:

George Washington by Willard Sterne Randall (PC)
John Adams by David McCullough (PC)
James Madison by Gary Wills (PC)
Team of Rivals : The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin (PC)
The Road To Monticello - The Life and Mind of Thomas Jeffersonby Kevin J Hayes(PC)
American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House by John Meacham (PC)
Ulysses S Grant by Michael Korda (PC)
The Last Founding Father James Monroe and A Nation's Call to Greatness by Harlow Giles Unger (PC)
William McKinley by Kevin Phillips (PC)
John Quincy Adams [A Public Life, A Private Life] by Paul C. Nagel





Next President on my shelf waiting to be read:



To be read at a future date:

The Personal Memoirs of Uylsses S. Grant

Notes on the State of Virginia by Thomas Jefferson
