Theodore Rex by Edmund Morris
Now here's a book that I starting reading over four years ago, got half way, and then thought it was lost only to find it recently.
This is a book about Theodore Roosevelt's presidential years. What I found the most interesting after reading this book is both the amount of energy Theodore had and also his insight into preserving our national resources. The fact that he was aware and trouble by the fact that the further a person is removed from nature the more resources they consume.
For me this book did have it's ups and down and with any biography about a president there's a ton of people that you read about for only a few chapters.
It's worth checking out from your local library.
