The ultimate guide to the presidents. Executive retreat 1865-1901. Episode 4
Description
"The Ultimate Guide to the Presidents" offers a fresh perspective on how the Oval Office has evolved over the past 200 years through stories about the 43 men who have served as commander-in-chief and the ebbs and flows of presidential power and responsibilities. America after the Civil War was a traumatized country in desperate need of leadership. The President who'd seen the nation through its most divisive conflict was dead, leaving no road map for peace.
