Which president was wounded during the Revolutionary War? What is
an executive order? How many bills did each president veto? Which
president's wife was the first to be called the first lady? These
are just a few of the many questions answered in CQ's Desk
Reference on the Presidency.
This ready-reference offers a wealth of information on the
presidency. The 500-plus questions have been selected to provide an
uncomplicated look at the American presidency, its organization,
procedures, and history, as well as the presidents themselves and
their families. Chapters include president's powers and duties,
elections that brought them to office, highlights of presidential
administrations, and the inner workings of the White House and the
Executive Branch.
The Desk Reference's question-and-answer format allows readers
to quickly search for the answers they need -- by turning to the
appropriate subsection of questions, by following out
cross-references between questions, and by using the extensive,
descriptive index to find the specific questions with the needed
information.
