Gerald Ford and The Presidents Club

Monday, November 5, 2012

Few men ever know what it’s like to be President of the United States -- the pressure, the nuance, the weight of decisions made in the oval office. That’s the idea behind “The Presidents Club” -- a book that discusses the close and sometimes contentious relationships between presidents past and present. WDET’s Laura Weber Davis spoke with author Michael Duffy about one president who served a particularly lonely term as commander-in-chief... Michigan-native Gerald Ford.

The Presidents Club was written by Michael Duffy and Nancy Gibbs.
