Recenzii
“The Evolving Presidency selects primary sources useful for tracing the development of the presidency and places them in a single reader, making it a vital resource for students and instructors.”
“A good book for exposing students to the original documents. The introductions by Nelson for each document are helpful and insightful.”
“A nicely-edited series of readings that I use to quickly get my class through large chunks of history. The short introductions to each document are great context, and the documents themselves are just the right length.”

New to the Sixth Edition:
- This edition contains sixty documents, more than in any previous edition, including additions that reflect historically significant recent events, notably Donald Trump’s inaugural address and his employment of Twitter as a form of presidential communication.
- Two brand-new additions from the early days of Donald Trump’s presidency:
- The text of his pessimistic and populist inauguration speech, in which he promised a focus on “America first”;
- A compilation of 68 tweets from one week in July 2017, providing students with a context to analyze his unprecedented use of the social network to directly engage with citizens, colleagues in the government, and even other world leaders.
