The American Presidency: Origins and Development, 1776-2014

The American PresidencyÂ examines the constitutional foundation of the executive office and the social, economic, political, and international forces that have reshaped it along with the influence individual presidents have had. Authors Sidney Milkis and Michael Nelson look at each presidency broadly, focusing on how individual presidents have sought to navigate the complex and ever-changing terrain of the executive office and revealing the major developments that launched a modern presidency at the dawn of the twentieth century. By connecting presidential conduct to the defining eras of American history and the larger context of politics and government in the United States, this award-winning book offers perspective and insight on the limitations and possibilities of presidential power.

In thisÂ Seventh Edition,Â marking the 25th anniversary ofÂ The American Presidencyâ€™sÂ publication, the authors add new scholarship to every chapter, reexamine the end of George W. Bushâ€™s tenure, assess President Obamaâ€™s first term in office, and explore Obamaâ€™s second term. Â
