The whole story is based on James Madison before and after his presidency. The book mentions all the battles he has witnessed and all kinds of people he has met on his many journeys as president for two terms. The book also talks about the his past education, family and even goes in depth on his accomplishments and failures. This book is really long, it is 416 pages and is huge. The words are ion small print so it is difficult to read. The book is so informal and has very little picture so you can only read a small portion at a time without getting bored. The only thing that kept me sane was the pictures. I would not recommend this book to anyone, but if I had no choice but to recommend it, I would recommend this book to people who have lots of spare time. Someone who is extremely dedicated to the topic that is James madison.
