The Evolving Presidency: Landmark Documents, 1787-2015

In theÂ Fifth EditionÂ ofÂ The Evolving Presidency, more than 50 documentsâ€”speeches, debates, letters and Supreme Court decisionsâ€”show readers the ways that presidents have shaped U.S. history through both word and deed. Editor Michael Nelson carefully crafts a headnote for each selection to place it in historical context and convey the documentâ€™s significance during its own time as well as its lasting effects on the office of the presidency. This edition offers eight all-new selections including James Madisonâ€™s Notes of the Federal Convention, Franklin D. Rooseveltâ€™s Executive Order on Japanese-American Internment, and Barack Obamaâ€™s 2015 State of the Union Address.
