Hardback. Condición: Good. Every president has had some experience as a parent. Of the 43 men who have served in the nation's highest office, 38 have fathered biological children and the other five adopted children.

FDR's children, on the other hand, had to make appointments to talk to him. In a lively narrative, based on research in archives around the country, Kendall shows presidential character in action.

Kendall was born in New York City. He received his BA (summa cum laude) from Yale where he studied comparative literature. He also did graduate work in comparative literature at Johns Hopkins. For his excellence in reporting on psychiatry, he has received national journalism awards from both the National Mental Health Association (now Mental Health America) and the American Psychoanalytic Association. He lives in Boston where he has ample opportunity to indulge his love of squash. He is currently an Associate Fellow of Yale's Trumbull College. His last book, America's Obsessives: The Compulsive Energy That Built a Nation, was published by Grand Central, a division of the Hachette Book Group, in 2013. His latest book for Grand Central, First Dads: Parenting and Politics From George Washington to Barack Obama, was published on May 10, 2016. Derived from a Kirkus review: A look at the parenting practices of American presidents. The United States has had 43 male presidents, men who were not only fathers to the nation, but also fathers to over 200 children. Of those 43, 38 presidents had biological children, and the remaining five men all raised adopted children. Kendall takes readers behind the scenes to reveal their private parenting techniques, using interviews, letters, and diaries to access a world that few have seen. Kendall categorizes the presidents into different types of fathers. There were those who were so involved with the job that they often ignored the children and those who loved to connect by being playful (Ulysses S. Grant and Theodore Roosevelt). John Quincy Adams and others are known for being "tiger" dads who controlled the lives of their children as tightly as they did the nation. Franklin Pierce and George H.W. Bush are just two who suffered the devastating deaths of children. Rutherford B. Hayes, James Garfield, and Barack Obama are known as nurturers. Kendall's research puts all the presidents and their parenting practices in perspective, giving readers insight into these men and their kids. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].…
