Review

Every once in a while American historians will be polled regarding the men they consider the greatest presidents. Without fail, they choose those people most dedicated to the expansion of

government. In this outstanding book, Brion McClanahan blasts these historians to smithereens, and

reveals the true history of the dangerous men who are known as our great presidents. Its about time someone did!

Tom Woods, author of Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century and The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History

This book is both a fascinating read by a master historian and a necessary guide for any voter.

Kevin R. C. Gutzman, author of James Madison and the Making of America and The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution

Congratulations to Brion McClanahan. As a true American historian, he tells the truth about the rogues gallery of US presidents, who have stolen our freedoms, and killed millions in the process. And what great prose!

Llewellyn H. Rockwell Jr., founding chairman of the Ludwig von Mises Institute

"Mr. McClanahan has a hit on his hands, or should. He lays out a case, in plain English, how each of nine presidents Screwed up our country. It is a fascinating and factual accounting of presidential usurpation of power...This book is entertaining and educational a feat which is all too difficult to achieve. I must say, I am smarter for reading it."

Brent Smith, The Daily Caller

"Brion McClanahan presents a masterful and superbly-scholarly discussion of how nine presidents, beginning with George Washington himself, effectively destroyed constitutional government."

Thomas DiLorenzo, LewRockwell.com

From the Inside Flap

It Didnt Start with Barack Obama

America is well on her way to becoming a banana republic. With presidents signing patently unconstitutional legislation, refusing to enforce laws they dont like, and even making appointments without the advice and consent of the Senate, its clear that the federal Republic our Constitution established is hanging by a thread. And yet the chances that a president who has flouted our founding document and the very rule of law will be impeached are slim to none.

Americans seem to have resigned ourselves to the exact form of government that the framers

and ratifiers of our Constitution feared most: the tyranny of an elected monarch. The executive branch of the U.S. federal government has grown so far beyond the bounds set for it in our

Constitution that Americans can no longer claim to govern ourselves. We only get the chance to pick the man who will spend four years legislating unilaterally with his pen, waging undeclared wars, and usurping still more powers that the people and the states never delegated to the federal government in the first place.

But how did we get here?

Step by unconstitutional step, as historian Brion McClanahan reveals in Nine Presidents Who Screwed Up AmericaAnd Four Who Tried to Save Her. McClanahans ranking of the presidents is surprisingbecause he judges them on the only true standard: whether or not they kept their oath of office to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
