Pictorial History of American Presidents by John & Alice Durant (Good, 1955, HC, 327 pgs, A.S. Barnes & Co.)

Dust jacket has much wear; cover has some wear; pages appear to be unmarked.

This is, perhaps, the most significant book yet produced by the gifted husband and wife team of John and Alice Durant. Over two years were spent in gathering and selecting the 566 prints, paintings and cartoons, many of which had never been published before. Thousands of hours of research at various governmental agencies, libraries, museums, and historical societies insure the accuracy of fact and picture presented.

It is an informal history covering every administration through Dwight D. Eisenhower and the significant and interesting events that occurred. The personality, habits, character and family of each president is presented in a personalized manner.
