The Potus Geeks Library
Since today isn't really the anniversary of much, let me update you on the status of the 
potus_geeks library. When I began this community in 2010, I had a modest collection of books about assorted presidents that looked something like this:
Over the past few years I've been scouring used book stores, book sales and discount booksellers' websites, and the collection has expanded to this:
Mypotus_geeks library has grow to 354 books either about the presidency or about specific presidents, as well as another 49 about runners up, vice-presidents or prominent members of cabinet.
Some of the recent purchases include the following:
Rutherford B. Hayes and His America by Harry Barnard
Power and Responsibility: Theodore Roosevelt by William Henry Harbaugh
William Howard Taft (two volume set) by Henry F. Pringle
The Ordeal of Woodrow Wilson by Herbert Hoover
William McKinley and His America by H. Wayne Morgan
John Adams (Two Volume Set) by Page Smith
No, I haven't read them all, but I've got the rest of my life to do that. In the meantime, I've got some place to go to look for answers to my dorkiest questions. What more could a geek want?
