The Hardest Job in the World: the American Presidency by John Dickerson
From Goodreads:
From the 60 Minutes correspondent, a deep dive into the history, evolution, and current state of the American presidency–and how we can make the job less impossible and more productive for the future.
John Dickerson looks at the history of the American presidency and how the office is altogether different than the job we discuss during presidential campaigns. In campaigns, the presidency is a magical place where the will of its occupant can move the nation. In reality, the presidency is stretched, burdened, and unmatched for the complexity of the modern world.
