Christian A. Nappo teaches for the Lee County, Florida, School District and holds an MA in library and information science from the University of South Florida. He also holds an MS in criminal justice from the University of Alabama and an MA in history from the University of Nebraska–Kearney. His previous publication The Librarians of Congress was published by Rowman & Littlefield in 2016.
Christian A. Nappo follows up his popular reference The Librarians
of Congress with an equally useful handbook describing the
histories and collections of the US presidential libraries. Nappo
successfully captures the unique background of the man whose memory
is preserved by each library and offers insights into how that
personal history continues to guide the library’s unique mission.
Younger readers especially will find these brief entries to be
accessible, instructive, and above all helpful in understanding the
broader mission of all presidential libraries.

A great resource on presidential libraries and museums. I highly
recommend this work for scholars and students.
