A Presidential Miscellany (Half-Leather)
In stock
$885.00
From presidential pets (Coolidge had two very political lion cubs) to code names (you'll never guess who Timberwolf was), Lewis Lapham compiles anecdotes, quotations, and unusual facts and figures to tell both the silly and the stately history of America's first forty four presidents.
A Presidential Miscellany is the fifth title in The Thornwillow Libretto Series, a publication of "little books" (the literal translation of the Italian word "libretto") designed to be a small beautiful space in which writers can make an enduring contribution to the timeline of American Literature.
