Synopsis: Three cheers for the red, white, and bloopers . . . A US treasury of gaffes, goofs, and weird White House trivia!

We&’ve dug up the most compelling and confounding dirt . . . er . . . statistics on these otherwise ordinary men who achieved great power. Which ones used it wisely? Which ones squandered it? And which ones would have rather been fishing? You&’ll get an up-close and personal look at each Oval Officer. From the birth of the country to modern-day yuks, Uncle John&’s Bathroom Reader Plunges into the Presidency is packed with more than 300 pages of amusing anecdotes, little-known history, fun quizzes, and more!
