Death, illness, sadness, and scandal affect every president and his family - often during their time in office. Yet the work of the nation and the pressures of the job do not cease simply because a president suffers, though their reaction, suffering, and perseverance often alters the course of American history. Thus, the volume reveals alternately the frailty, the humanity, and the strength of character of the twelve presidents under scrutiny. 606 $aPresidents$zUnited States$xHealth$vCase studies 606 $aPresidents$zUnited States$xPsychology$vCase studies 606 $aPresidents$zUnited States$xDecision making$vCase studies 606 $aPolitical corruption$zUnited States$vCase studies 615 0$aPresidents$xHealth 615 0$aPresidents$xPsychology 615 0$aPresidents$xDecision making 615 0$aPolitical corruption 676 $a973.099 702 $aEngel$b Jeffrey A. 702 $aKnock$b Thomas J. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910164927103321 996 $aWhen life strikes the president$92895767 997 $aUNINA
