As a child in the 1980s, I got an edition of this book that was printed during Ronald Reagan's 1st term. It was very well organized, telling when each President up to that point was born & died, when & whom he married, who his parents, siblings & children were, who his Vice President & Cabinet officers were, & myriad other details. In the 30+ years (at this posting) since that edition, Presidents Nixon, Ford & Reagan have died. This latest edition does give the circumstances surrounding Reagan's death but barely mentions the death dates of Nixon & Ford. Also, in the chapter for John Quincy Adams, the "Father" paragraph still gives the outdated stat of the Adamses being the "only" father-&-son Presidents; someone failed to update that bit after George W. Bush took office. Still, all in all, this is a good reference book for any Presidential trivia buff from casual to die-hard.

Outstanding book on the Presidents. I have hundreds. My only disappointment with this book is he presents each President why didn't he putunder their picture, which started each chapter, the period of his presidency???. You have to read into the chapter to find the dates of service.RLB

Got for my elementary kids. They seem to be enjoying new knowledge of the presidents.

Wonderful synopsis of all the presidents. Interesting details. Great research material for students andan interesting read for anyone. Good purchase.

Good book on the history of our Presidents. Informative for school age or adults. Great Pictures make this book come to life!

Excellent and thorough. Disagree, however, with recent presidential ratings. I use it as a thorough reference. Author to be congratulated for superb work
