Hi all,

I'm trying to get a hold of books that have extensive details about each president and their long-term impacts on the direction of U.S. history, both good and bad. I'm looking for real deep dives here; books that cover policy towards Indigenous people, foreign policy, economic policy, etc.

Additionally, details that cover non-presidential aspects are fine too, like William Henry Harrison's time as a general in the War of 1812 or William H. Taft's time as a Supreme Court justice. I guess I'm afraid to ask for biographies because for whatever reason I worry about biographies being hagiographies.
