Summary:

"What's so weird about U.S. presidents? Plenty! Did you know that Abraham Lincoln was a great wrestler? That Ulysses S. Grant got a speeding ticket riding his horse--twice! Or that Benjamin Harrison was afraid of electricity? And let's not forget that President McKinley had a pet parrot that whistled 'Yankee Doodle Dandy' duets with him! In this new single-subject Weird But True book, you'll have a blast learning that there's a lot of substance--and weirdness--in every president's past"--Provided by publisher.
