I need to find some good political biographies on Presidents.

I have found a good one on Adams, Truman, JFK, Washington and one on Hamilton (I know not a President)

PBrunsel, I was wondering if you could recommend one on Herbert Hoover? Also, any others as I know you are a keen historian.

There are a series of nice biographies on all the presidents in the book "To the Best of My Abilities" by James M. McPherson.
