President Books for Presidents Day

February 18, 2019 by Travis Jonker   1 comments

Today is Presidents Day and I’m here celebrating with a bowl of plain oatmeal, or as I like to call it, “The Champaign of Breakfast foods.”¹

It got me thinking about books coming out in 2019 that have to do with presidents. Turns out, some pretty interesting stuff. Let’s have a look. Did I miss any? Let’s hear it in the comments.

    Travis, thanks for sharing this! I just blogged about teaching with NEVER CAUGHT today over on The Classroom Bookshelf. I haven’t seen a copy of ONA JUDGE OUTWITS THE WASHINGTONS. When I do, I’ll update the entry I just wrote. It’s amazing to see two books about her this winter, and one in which she has a chapter.
