One president and book on the list:
Theodore RooseveltRead about another presidential favorite book.
Teddy Roosevelt was first and foremost an outdoorsman, so his love for Audubon's "Birds of America" comes as no surprise. Roosevelt also had a passion for Alfred Mahan's "Influence of Sea Power Upon History," a history of naval warfare that he used to justify maintaining a strong U.S. Navy, and which he not only read but also wrote a book review for.
