Presidential Road Trips - 100 Places To Explore & Experience the History of American Presidents

Presented by Bill Clevlen

From the birthplace of George Washington to the train depot where Jimmy Carter launched his presidential campaign, this fun travel guide will help you plan an unforgettable American history lesson! Explore the homes where future presidents spent their formative years and the retreats where they relaxed, entertained, and made consequential decisions. Along the way you'll see the library where James Madison worked on the U.S. Constitution; the living room with Dwight Eisenhower's favorite TV trays; the desk Lyndon Johnson used to sign the Civil Rights Act; and George W. Bush's childhood bedroom. 

You’ll walk through the Air Force One that carried John F. Kennedy's body back to Washington D.C. after his assassination; step inside the helicopter used when Richard Nixon famously left The White House after his resignation; and touch the handrail inside Abraham Lincoln's Springfield, Illinois home. This ultimate presidential road trip includes 100 stops with mansions, museums, grave sites, monuments, memorials, historic landmarks, and more!
