Kennedy, Jr., the children of America's presidents have both suffered and triumphed under the watchful eyes of their powerful fathers and the glare of the ever-changing public. Whether they perished under the pressure like Andrew Johnson, upheld controversial views like Amy Carter, or carried their father's torch right back to the White House like George W.

Featuring lively anecdotes, photographs, short biographies, and never-before-published personal accounts, All the Presidents' Children is an important socio-cultural work, a groundbreaking study of American family dynamics, and an entertaining foray into the homes, hearts, and history of our forefathers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67927350575327,"sku":"9780743446334","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/T4AR3uXYVa9780743446334.webp?v=1791255159"},{"product_id":"inside-trumps-white-house-hardcover","title":"Inside Trump's White House - Hardcover","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAfter dozens of books and articles by anonymous sources, here is finally a history of the Trump White House with the President and his staff talking openly, on the record.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eInside Trump's White House\u003c\/i\u003e, Doug Wead offers a sweeping, eloquent history of President Donald J.

But were these characteristics evident in youth? What are the family circumstances that have created our presidents? How did their upbringing shape their future -- and ours? In The Raising of a President, bestselling author Doug Wead goes where no presidential biographer has gone before: straight to the childhood homes of America's greatest leaders. Wead analyzes the types of families in which they were reared, and offers fascinating psychological profiles based on his findings. Using presidential letters and personal correspondence -- as well as notes from his own private conversations with six presidential families -- Wead brilliantly portrays the early lives, loves, and political awakenings of George Washington; John Adams and the rest of America's first dynasty; Lincoln, who never betrayed his humble roots; Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy, each raised in prominent political households; and the once and future commanders in chief Bush. More than just political biography, The Raising of a President sheds new light on America s presidents, who were not only born but made.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67977104523487,"sku":"9780743497275","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/xlOhtDiDxw9780743497275.webp?v=1791867090"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/doug-wead.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
