Does the inauguration of President Obama have you feeling patriotic? Well, I’m certainly feeling it. One of the things on my to-do list these days is to learn more about the other forty-three presidents (trivia question: do you know who was counted twice? answer). If you’re like me (and I admit I’m a history geek), then you may want to check out any of the presidential biographies we have in our video collection. I’d recommend any of the flicks from PBS, especially The American Experience series. Founding Brothers, based on the bestselling book by Joseph Ellis, is a good starting place and then if you’ve got the time why not try John Adams, the HBO film based on the bestselling book by David McCullough.
