Historical
From the chief White House correspondent for U.S. News &
World Report, a fascinating and unique look at our
presidents' retreats, hideaways, and homes n Air Force One,
Kenneth T. Walsh looked at presidential history from the
unusual and illuminating vantage point of the presidents'
planes. Now he focuses on the various retreats where our
commanders-in-chief have gone to escape the hustle and
bustle of Washington, chronicling the important decisions
that were made and the historic events that have occurred at
them. Moreover, he describes what these sites reveal about
the characters of the presidents and the times in which they
lived.
