I'm currently reading the Bully Pulpit by Doris Kearns Goodwin. It got me thinking that I want to learn more about all the presidents. I saw that Ms. Goodwin has a book about FDR and Lincoln, but have you guys read any good books about presidents?

Ron Chernow has some pretty in-depth books about Washington and Grant, as well as a great book about Hamilton.

The Presidents by Iain Dale might be worth looking at. There is also a podcast which goes with it with 1 episode per president.

I'd definitely recommend David Mccullough. He wrote quite a few Biographies of presidents. Truman, John Adams, Theodore Roosevelt etc.
