Produktbeschreibung

Presidents in Retirement describes and analyzes the behavior of all thirty-three former presidents who were faced with deciding how to make the most of their new lives as private citizens. Rather than simply present a chronology of presidential behavior, the book explores the variety of retirement activities with chapters on partisan politics, public service, economic pursuits, leisurely activities, health concerns, and relationships with a successor.
