What is To Lead a Nation : the Presidency in the Twentieth Century about?
PORTABLE PROFESSOR<i> is a series of exciting and informative lectures recorded by some of today's most renowned university and college professors. Each course introduces listeners to fascinating, and sometimes startling, insights into the intellectual forces that shape our understanding of the world. Each package includes 14 riveting lectures presented by notable professors as well as a book-length course guide.</i><br> <br> Teddy Roosevelt remarked that no president could achieve greatness save through war, but Woodrow Wilson noted that a president is as big a man as he chooses to be.
