Stories of the disastrous blunders of American presidents show readers the inner workings of the White House and how some of our greatest leaders could make decisions that were terribly wrong. The 23 narrative stories, each about 10 pages in length, retell the histories behind bad presidential decisions. They are told in a real time narrative style, bringing readers inside the White House, introducing them to the main characters, exposing why these decisions were made, and describing the ill-fated aftermaths.
