Observe the American scene long enough, and one isn't quite certain whether to cry or to laugh. Robert L. Haught prefers the latter reaction ... The Tulsa World

The POTUS Chronicles is a merry romp through some of the most eventful times in the nation’s political history. It’s a sometimes-bumpy roller coaster ride, "prudently recreating" with George H. W. Bush, wondering what’s next for "Bubba" Bill Clinton and his co-president wife, and "misunderestimating" George "Dubya" Bush.

Like pages from a reporter’s notebook, satirical glimpses of three administrations are captured with the freshness of today’s headlines.

Besides presenting a breezy account of war and peace and partying at the dawn of a new century, the pages of The POTUS Chronicles contain answers to many questions that trouble the minds of conscientious citizens, such as:

Which president had to prove his identity to a skeptical third-grader?

What advice did the Bush dog, Millie, give the Clinton cat, Socks?

Whose presidential inauguration involved an official road kill patrol?

Who is the former first lady who revealed she has conversations with Eleanor Roosevelt?

How did the White House staff react when a president choked on a pretzel?

What happened to Dick Cheney after a Republican senator switched parties?

Relive a memorable era in the nation’s capital as seen through the lens of a seasoned Washington observer, tongue in cheek.

... great fun, with just the right amount of amused detachment and a perfect eye for detail ... It really is terrific.
Jeffrey Zaslow, columnist, The Wall Street Journal, and co-author (with Randy Pausch) of "The Last Lecture."

Do cats absorb wisdom by sitting on newspapers?

Are all dogs as dumb as Dave Barry's?

Do you ever wonder why video tapes are so hard to open?

What do men need to know about grocery shopping?

How can a bumblebee fly?

Who did a scientific study of belly button lint?

When is the best time to retire?

Where's the place to get the perfect haircut?

You’ll find answers to these and other vital questions between the covers of “Now, I’m No Expert” … and you’ll get some chuckles from observations on some of life’s mysteries by a newspaper columnist and former editorial writer who has opinions on just about everything under the sun.

This writer can find humor in eye surgery and grocery shopping, motor trips and retirement, even obituaries.

With cartoon illustrations by the author, this book includes admissions of inexpertness on Cats, Dogs, Body Art, Money, Telephones, Jobs, Perfume, Beards, Gardening, Toilets, TV Ratings, Baby Names, Gambling, Music, Dieting, Fashion, Men, Weddings, and much more.

Enjoy a welcome escape from the heavy headlines, a moment to smile about things that bug us from time to time.

“I strongly believe in the power of laughter to relieve the anxiety and strain of these stressful times.” - Robert L. Haught
