Books in the dependable Presidents and Their Times series introduce our country's presidents but focus much more on their careers, their politics, and their times than on their personal lives. In each volume, the clearly written text and abundant sidebars provide a good deal of background information that will be helpful to students unfamiliar with the social and political context of the period under discussion. Each book concludes with a time line, notes for quoted passages, a source bibliography, a glossary, and lists of recommended resources. In Grover Cleveland, Otfinoski introduces a hardworking man who was intolerant of corruption and stood firm in his beliefs. The books' clean page layouts, the quality of the paper, the use of color, and the clear reproduction of illustrations help make this an attractive series as well as a useful one.
