The Political Presidency by Kellerman

How presidents lead-or fail to-is the central concern of this pointed analysis of political leadership in America. Beginning with a solid theoretical examination of the political leadership, Kellerman moves on to assess the nature of presidential power under America's six most recent administrations and considers the way each president handled the most important item on his domestic agenda.
'Required reading for the next president and for citizens who want to understand the politics of success in the White House' James David Barber, Duke University
