There & rsquo;s the office: President of the United States. And then there & rsquo;s the man in the office & mdash;prone to temptation and looking to unwind after a long day running the country. Celebrating the decidedly less distinguished side of the nation & rsquo;s leaders, humor writer Brian Abrams offers a compelling, hilarious, and true American history on the rocks & mdash;a Washington-to-Obama, vice-by-vice chronicle of how the presidents like to party. From explicit love letters to slurred speeches to nude swims at Bing Crosby & rsquo;s house, reputations are ruined and secrets bared. George Washington brokered the end of the? American Revolution over glasses of Madeira. Ulysses S. Grant rarely drew a sober breath when he was leading the North to victory. And it wasn & rsquo;t all liquor. Some presidents preferred their drugs & mdash;Nixon was a pill-popper. And others chased women instead & mdash;both?the professorial Woodrow Wilson (who signed his love letters & ldquo;Tiger & rdquo;) and the good ol & rsquo; boy Bill Clinton, though neither could hold a candle to Kennedy, who also received the infamous Dr. Feelgood & rsquo;s & ldquo;vitamin & rdquo; injections of pure amphetamine. Illustrated throughout with infographics (James Garfield & rsquo;s attempts at circumnavigating the temperance movement), comic strips (George Bush Sr. & rsquo;s infamous televised vomiting incident), caricatures, and fake archival documents, the book has the smart, funny feel of Mad magazine meets The Colbert Report . Plus, it includes recipes for 44 cocktails inspired by each chapter & rsquo;s partier-in-chief.
