Download Recapturing the Oval Office: New Historical Approaches to the American Presidency: Miller Center of Public Affairs Books AudioBook Free
In Recapturing the Oval Office, leading historians and communal scientists forge an agenda for returning the analysis of the presidency to the mainstream practice of history, and they graph how the research of the presidency can be built-into historical narratives that combine abundant analyses of political, social, and ethnical history. The writers show how "bringing the presidency back" can deepen knowledge of crucial questions regarding race relations, faith, and political market. The contributors illuminate the conditions that have both empowered and limited previous presidents, and thus show how communal, cultural, and political contexts matter. By causing the history of the presidency a serious area of the scholarly agenda in the future, historians possess the opportunity to effect debates about the proper role of the chief executive today.
