For the weekly books page I edit for the Washington Examiner, I asked a group of scholars and authors–many of them NROniks–to recommend a single book on several important presidents: Gleaves Whitney on George Washington, Bill McClay on John Adams, Ken Masugi on Abe Lincoln, Rick Brookhiser on TR, Matthew Spalding on Calvin Coolidge, George Nash on FDR, Elizabeth Spalding on Harry Truman, Steve Hayward on JFK, Matthew Dallek on Ronald Reagan, and Jeff Shesol on Bill Clinton. Read the results here.
