Golda Meir began her career as a grassroots activist whose tireless efforts helped ensure the creation of a Jewish homeland. As a diplomat and negotiator, she played a pivotal role in securing the recognition and funding that made the founding of Israel possible in 1948. She would go on to serve as the new nation’s foreign minister and, ultimately, as its prime minister—one of the first women in the world to hold such an office.

America's many presidents, both famous and obscure, have been as varied as the history of the country they have ruled. Over two centuries the presidential seat has been occupied by soldiers and school teachers, judges and journalists, haberdashers, Hollywood actors, professors, postmasters and even, believe it or not, a peanut farmer. Each had their own strengths and weaknesses, some perhaps with more of one than the other, but all were influential in shaping the history of this unique and influential nation.

In May 1877, Ulysses S. Grant, after two terms in the White House, embarked on an extraordinary three-year journey that defined a pivotal moment in the Gilded Age.

Picone’s Ulysses’s Odyssey: Ulysses S. Grant’s World Tour at the Dawn of American Empire masterfully chronicles this unprecedented adventure, illuminating its historical significance and Grant’s enduring legacy.

In historical surveys, Andrew Johnson has been consistently ranked as one of the worst presidents for well over 150 years. But despite his bad reputation, there is much more to the life of Andrew Johnson than these rankings suggest. Andrew Johnson was a man who had long walked a political tightrope. He was a Southern Democrat who opposed the Democrat-dominated Southern states when they seceded from the Union—in fact, he was the only Southern senator to remain loyal to the United States.

Il mondo sulle spalle. È il peso che Giorgio Napolitano ha spesso sentito su di sé durante la sua lunga vita politica, piena di battaglie appassionate, cause giuste e sbagliate e strade nuove da esplorare. E che, insieme alla gratificazione per l'intenso rapporto con gli italiani, ha avvertito ancor di più quando è diventato Presidente della Repubblica e poi è stato rieletto per un secondo mandato. Ma una sensazione simile l'ha talvolta provata anche il figlio Giulio, crescendo con un padre dal rigore fuori dal comune e seguendo il suo percorso con curiosità e partecipazione.

Politisches und militärisches Totalversagen, aber ein kulturhistorisches Vermächtnis von Weltrang – auf diesen Nenner bringt der britische Historiker Tim Blanning die Lebensbilanz von August dem Starken, Kurfürst von Sachsen und König von Polen. Diese Chance hätte er nutzen können, einen mächtigen europäischen Staat zu schaffen, ein Bollwerk gegen Russland und gegen die preußische Expansion. Doch politisch und militärisch ließ August keine Gelegenheit aus zu scheitern. Zugleich frönte er als skrupelloser Verschwender und Lüstling den Freuden des Lebens und förderte ebenso exzessiv die Kunst.

Before his fiftieth birthday, Teddy Roosevelt had served as a state legislator in New York, undersecretary of the navy, police commissioner of New York City, governor of New York, and two terms as Vice President and then president of the United States. He also had run a cattle ranch in the Dakota Territories, had worked as a journalist and editor, conducted scientific expeditions on four continents, raised five children, and enjoyed a fulfilling marriage with his wife. No wonder he continues to capture our imaginations as he did the loyalty and respect of his own time.

You've watched him dominate headlines for decades. You've seen him win an election everyone said was impossible, survive scandals that would destroy normal politicians, and build a following so loyal they'd follow him through hell wearing gasoline underpants. But here's what you haven't seen: the psychological machinery behind it all. This book rips apart the most persuasive president in modern history and shows you exactly how he does it.
