Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. Fine unread condition light silver gray boards, black spine, and silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Endnotes; Bibliography and Index. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. ".a smart and provocative look at the most exclusive club in America. Highly recommended!" - Douglas Brinkley, Professor of History and Director of the Theodore Roosevelt Center at Tulane University. "Former presidents have been likened to Cinderella after the ball. In this intimate, often surprising group portrait, Mark Updegrove reveals how our ex-presidents since Truman have dealt with the loss of power that is their pumpkin. From Ike struggling to master the intricacies of the dial tone, to LBJ raging like Lear on the Perdenales [River], to Jimmy Carter, the Extra President - Updegrove gives us riveting history by twilight. His evening stars cast a memorable glow." - Richard Norton Smith, Scholar in Residence, George Mason University. ". a fascinating read about a subject that has been neglected for too long. It is history at its best; a well-researched and well-told narrative that illuminates the recent past in surprisingly unexpected ways. Filled with wit as well as wisdom, Second Acts is a delight." - Don Carleton, Director of the Center for American History, University of Texas. "Highly recommended." - Library Journal. "For those interested in the former presidents, this popular history will do the trick." - Publishers Weekly. "Revealing in detail and context." - Kirkus Reviews. "F. Scott Fitzgerald once wrote, "There are no second acts in American lives," but more and more, our former presidents are proving him wrong. No longer fading into the background upon leaving the highest office in the land, ex-presidents perform valuable services as elder statesmen and international emissaries - and by pursuing their own agendas. From Eisenhower taking Kennedy to the woodshed (literally) on the Bay of Pigs crisis, to Carter earning the Nobel Peace Prize, to Bush Sr. and Clinton joining forces in an unlikely partnership for tsunami and Hurricane Katrina relief, the author examines the increasingly important roles that former presidents assume in our nation and throughout the world. Through interviews with former presidents, first ladies, family members, friends, and staffers, the author also delves into the very human stories that play out as the modern ex-presidents - from Truman to Clinton - adjust to life after the White House and attempt to shape their historical legacies. In this, the first narrative history of the modern post-presidency, Mark K. Updegrove makes a refreshingly unique contribution to literature on the American presidents." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition.

Includes List of Other Books by Thomas M. DeFrank; Author Dedication; Prologue; Epilogue; Acknowledgments and Index. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates.

"In an extraordinary series of private interviews, conducted over sixteen years with the stipulation that they not be released until after Gerald Ford's death, the thirty-eighth president of the United States reveals a profoundly different side of himself: funny, reflective, gossipy, strikingly candid -- and the stuff of headlines. In 1974, the award-winning journalist and author Thomas DeFrank, then a young correspondent for Newsweek, was interviewing Ford when the Vice President blurted out something astonishingly indiscreet related to the White House, came around his desk, grabbed DeFrank's tie, and told the reporter he could not leave the room until he promised not to publish it. "Write it when I'm dead," Ford said -- and that agreement formed the basis of their relationship for the next thirty-two years. During that time, they talked frequently, but from 1991 to shortly before Ford's death in 2006, the interviews became something else -- conversations between two men in which Ford talked in a way few presidents ever have. Here is the real Ford on his relationship with Richard Nixon (including the 1974 revelation, which, in DeFrank's words, "will alter what history thinks it knows about the events that culminated in Ford's becoming president"); his experiences serving on the Warren Commission; his complex relationships with Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter; his startling, never-before-disclosed discussions with Bill Clinton during the latter's impeachment process; his opinions about both Bush administrations, the Iraq war, and many contemporary political figures; and much more. Here, also, are Ford's unguarded personal musings: about key cultural events; his own life, history, and passions; his beloved wife, Betty; the frustrations of aging. In all, it is an unprecedented book, illuminating, entertaining, surprising, heartwarming, and in several cases, historic." - from the inner front jacket flap.
