Louis Phillips Libri

Which President killed a man in a duel? Who was arrested while holding office? What did Lincoln dream the night before his assassination. A fun and fascinating guide to the U.S. Presidents from Washington to Clinton-with a portrait of each one and a description of each man's life and accomplishments.

This is a lively collection of over 500 snipes and gibes, ranging from Oscar Wilde on Bernard Shaw, and Denis Healey on Harold Wilson, to Clive James on John McEnroe and Bernard Ingham on Craig Brown.
