Sometimes factual, sometimes biased opinion
The shorts on each president (& some first ladies) are exceptionally brief and to-the-point. Good for some trivia and learning a little bit about each president, instead of overly focusing on a few. Since I got the book for free, I'm satisfied, however, the authors certainly make many claims about what is "good" or "bad" for policy, issues, actions, etc made by certain presidents - and many times I disagree with their assessment. If they had stuck with the facts instead of adding that commentary I wouldn't have an issue with that. Given the policy calls and that there are sometimes errors in the text, I don't recommend paying for this, which is really a shame as otherwise it's a nifty little book with some interesting tidbits.
