The Presidency of James Monroe by Noble E Cunningham

The Presidency of James Monroe by Noble E Cunningham

Noble Cunningham's history of the fifth presidency (1817-25) shows a young nation beset by growing pains and led by a cautious politician who had neither the learning nor the intellect of Jefferson or Madison, but whose actions strengthened both the United States and the presidency itself.
