Zachary Taylor: The American Presidents Series: The 12th President, 1849-1850 Hardcover - 2008

Eisenhower, the son of another soldier-president, shows how Zachary Taylor rose to the presidency, where he confronted the most contentious political issue of his age: slavery. His truncated presidency exposed the fateful rift that would soon tear the country apart.
