- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Dover Pubns
- Publish date: 11/01/2000
Description:
"I know only two tunes", said Ulysses S. Grant. "One of them is 'Yankee Doodle' and the other isn't". Jimmy Carter observed: "Whatever starts in California unfortunately has an inclination to spread". And Warren Harding complained: "The White House is a prison. I can't get away from the men who dog my footsteps. I am in jail". These and more than 400 other memorable quotes, expressed by America's chief executives over the past three centuries, fill the pages of this entertaining, handy little book. From George Washington, John Adams, and James Buchanan to Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton, these presidential declarations -- accompanied by a brief biography of each man -- will not only provide public speakers and students of American history with a wealth of useful material, but will also delight general readers.
