ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Hear TIME magazine executive editor Nancy Gibbs discuss her new book (co-authored with Michael Duffy), The Presidents Club, which traces the history of the world’s “most exclusive fraternity.”

This captivating work examines the private relationships among modern American presidents, including Jack Kennedy and “Ike” Eisenhower’s rivalry, Jerry Ford and Jimmy Carter’s unexpected alliance, and the deep sense of competition between Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

ABC News correspondent David Wright moderates the conversation. A Q&A and book signing follow the program.

“The tales of friendship, envy, conspiracy, competition and common cause [are] irresistible.”—Tom Brokaw
