The U.S. Presidency (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9798895811184)

U.S. presidents serve as commanders-in-chief of the armed forces, hold the power to veto legislation, issue executive orders, and negotiate treaties. They shape national policy, represent the nation internationally, and respond to crises. Historic presidencies like those of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin D. Roosevelt have changed the course of U.S. and world history. Highlighting the challenges and future of the presidency, this book for middle-grade readers aligns with NCSS standards for power, authority, and governance. Includes table of contents, sidebars, glossary, bibliographic references, and index.
