Hugh Boyle, THE BOOK NOOK

“I must admit my first thought was that the world really didn’t need another book about our 16th President but now I’m of the opinion that, yes, the world was ready for this book. There are a lot of, ‘I didn’t know that’ moments …It’s filled with quick-read stories, some you know - or think you do - some you never dreamed happened.” Ted Taylor, MEDIA NEWS GROUP
