Presidential historian Michael Beschloss tells the New York Times the incoming president should read Washington by Ron Chernow.
“This classic shows how, when our democracy was fragile, a human and courageous leader — through his acts, language and personal example — defined the office of the presidency in order to protect our liberties, defend the country from secret foreign threats, ensure the rule of law, bring our people together and inspire our next generation.”
It’s an excellent choice.
