Appearances
Too many to count, but we'll get into it here for sure.
This is going to be the one.
Well, see, I have talked to them, so it'll be a good time.
Yeah.
I picked the ones that were interesting.
So with Teddy Roosevelt, you know, would focus on his outdoor writing, his great nature writing, and then focus on when he wrote about the War of 1812 from like a naval perspective.
Because that book is still important to historians today, even though Teddy Roosevelt wrote it when he was at Harvard as a student.
So I would just pick the presidents that were most interesting, pick the books that were most interesting.
And then that book sort of also told the history of communication.
Like when I was writing about Reagan,
I was also writing about the rise of like Walden books and how bookstores and malls changed the kinds of books people wrote.
And so Jimmy Carter wrote a bunch of books, but a lot of books, but unfortunately he's only like a couple of paragraphs in my book because he was operating in the same world as, as Reagan.
So like with Carter, he was one of the first people to use a word processor.
You know, he would have like these floppy disks that could hold 12 pages on it.
And he had to pay thousands of dollars to bring this giant microwave size word processor into his house.
So
Unfortunately for Mr. Carter, I only focused on the word processor, not the books, but I wanted it to be a good story.
Who's your favorite president?
Lincoln.
Lincoln?
