Comprehensive in rhetoric and communication peer-reviewed books and journals. Selective in other literature on specific presidents. As the titles under a particular president increase they may be moved to a separate page or group of pages for that president. If the president's name appears in the title it goes here. Comparisons of more than one president may be listed twice under each president and/or placed in General and Comparative sources. The small but growing literature on First Ladies is included here as part of the rhetorical presidency, under the respective President.
