Prisoners of the White House looks at the isolation experienced by presidents of the United States in the White House, a habitat almost guaranteed to keep America's commander in chief far removed from everyday life. The authors look at how this is emerging as one of the most serious dilemmas facing the American presidency. As presidents have become more isolated, the role of the presidential pollster has grown. Ken Walsh has been given exclusive access to the polls and confidential memos received by presidents over the years, and has interviewed presidential pollsters directly to gain their unique perspective. Prisoners of the White House gets inside the bubble and punctures the mythology surrounding the presidency.

"The Most Chaste and Entertaining Story before the American People. Endorsed by Universities, Colleges, Schools, the Press, Pulpit and the People Everywhere.""Billy" Bates could laugh later. But his true story of the harrowing journey as prisoners of war from the hell of Andersonville Confederate prison camp to the tender mercies of Abraham Lincoln himself was one he barely survived.After befriending "Dick" in prison camp, the two managed to escape. Repeatedly helped by African Americans (at risk of their own lives) Billy and Dick eventually found themselves back in the embrace of their Union comrades and brought before General William Tecumseh Sherman.Sherman was horrified and enraged by the starved and diseased condition of the two men and what they described of Andersonville. When he asked what he could do for the boys, Billy said, "I should like to live long enough to see President Lincoln and then go home and die."Sherman assured him he would indeed see Lincoln. He ordered they be taken immediately by train to Washington and the White House to meet Lincoln and tell him their story. Lincoln's tender treatment of the two boys brought them to tears. Like Sherman, he told them both to hold on and they would once again see their home.For the first time, this long-out-of-print book is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.

Barack Obama is the first African American President, but the history of African Americans in the White House long predates him. The building was built by slaves, and African Americans have worked in it ever since, from servants to advisors. In charting the history of African Americans in the White House, Kenneth T. Walsh illuminates the trajectory of racial progress in the US. He looks at Abraham Lincoln and his black seamstress and valet, debates between President Johnson and Martin Luther King over civil rights, and the role of black staff members under Nixon and Reagan. Family of Freedom gives a unique view of US history as seen through the experiences of African Americans in the White House.
