There are few symbols of modern power as instantly recognisable as a man in a dark suit with an earpiece, scanning a crowd that is cheering for someone else. The posture is familiar, almost cinematic now. The face is neutral, but the attention is absolute. He is there to be unnoticed and yet, paradoxically, he is impossible to ignore. He stands near the president, near a president’s spouse, near a visiting leader, near a microphone, near a motorcade door, near the edge of a stage. Sometimes he seems to be watching nothing at all. Then, in a fraction of a second, he moves.

This book explores the essential role of political pragmatism in presidential leadership. Through a historical lens, it shows that effective Presidents such as Bush, Ford, FDR, Lincoln, and Jefferson understood that true leadership sometimes requires guiding the country in directions not immediately supported by the public or even their own party. The opening chapter examines the sources of presidential power and traces how the office has evolved through the actions of earlier Presidents.

The rhyme and language of a writer's voice is the living soul of narrative. The evolution of John Hay's voice, established during his formative and college years at Brown University and echoed during his time with Abraham Lincoln, is documented in Lincoln's Speechwriter through evidence of Hay's distinct voice and Lincoln's ability to engage audiences, fused into something remarkable.

In a groundbreaking reassessment of the long Cold War era, historian Gregory A. Daddis argues that ever since the Second World War's fateful conclusion, faith in and fear of war became central to Americans' thinking about the world around them. With war pervading nearly all aspects of American society, an interplay between blind faith and existential fear framed US policymaking and grand strategy, often with tragic results.

From Reconstruction to redemption, civil rights to the Southern strategy, the multiracial protests of 2020 for social justice to the swift elimination of policies etching out a more inclusive, equitable society, Americans regularly experience periods of racial reckoning followed by walloping retrenchment.
