If you are reading this before November 8th enjoy our countdown to election day with the best books to learn about every US President.

If you are reading this on or after November 8th, enjoy a completed list of the best books and articles about every US president and ignore any of the now incorrect word tenses we may use.

It is an incredibly unscientific process, but at the end of the day it still provides a pretty great list of books to read on whatever subject we are covering. New books and lists are coming out all of the time, so consider these as more of a good starting point instead of a complete master list (as you should with any list of books).

Before we get to the top books and links to the articles with the full lists we thought we would take a quick look at some of the statistics.
