Why read it?
1 author picked Hail to the Chiefs as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book made me want to be Barbara Holland or at least try to capture her spirit in my writing. I’ve held onto it for my last four moves across the country.
She is so fucking funny, brash, and observant of things a lot of us overlook. I like how biting she can be; she doesn’t give two effs. This happens to be a book about the presidents, but somehow it’s one of the funniest books I’ve ever read. RIP BARB!
From Jane's list on encyclopedic books for cultural factoid nerds.
