A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the White House

This book profiles eighteen of our funniest-some would say dirtiest-elections, from 1828, the first election in which all states had electors, to the "election from hell" in 2000. The book also includes chapters on Watergate and impeachment, a final summarizing chapter, and a "gallery" containing an official photograph and an outrageous saying about each president by one of his contemporaries.
