Not an entirely bad intro, but 20 pages per President is too little. The writing isn't great, either, and the author repeats some words far too often (e.g., "repudiated"), particularly in the first half of the book. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"The Modern American Presidency is a interpretive synthesis of our twentieth-century leaders, filled with intriguing insights into how the presidency has evolved as America rose to prominence on the world stage. Gould traces the decline of the party system and the increasing importance of the media, resulting in the rise of the role of the president as celebrity. He traces the growth of the White House staff and executive bureaucracy. And he shows us a succession of chief executives who increasingly have known less and less about the business of governing the country, observing that most would have had a better historical reputation if they had contented themselves with a single term."--Jacket.
