B PIERCE 2010 판: First edition. 출판사, 날짜: New York : Times Books/Henry Holt and Co., [2010] ©2010 설명: xviii, 154 pages ; 22 cm. 요약: Creates a solid portrait of both man and President. Pierce, a New Englander known for his charm and good looks, traditionally ranks as one of our nation's worst leaders. Holt does not dispel or challenge any previous assessments but rather tries to explain the pre-Civil War President's actions. Holt's thesis is that Pierce's obsession with the Democratic Party and priority of party over country in the tumultuous 1850s in fact damaged his party and pushed the country more quickly toward war. 시리즈: American presidents American presidents series (Times Books (Firm)) 주제: Pierce, Franklin, 1804-1869.
