Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents of the United States Volume I

Description of Various Authors, author of Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents of the United States Volume I:

Equally as monumental as taking the Executive Oath of Office, but as varied and unique as each President, is the inaugural address. The Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents of the United States provide many memorable and inspiring passages and their history is as interesting as it is important. This first volume in a two-volume set gives every inaugural speech from George Washington's (1789) to James Garfield's (1881). These addresses constitute a complete collection of American leadership, highlighting the policy and vision that surround the institution of the U.S. Presidency. From Washington's pledge to a new nation and Lincoln's plea to a divided one, to Roosevelt's confrontation of fear and Kennedy's exaltation of service for one's country, this two-volume set is a valuable reference for historians, scholars, and the American people.
