The President Who Got a Speeding Ticket: True Stories They Never Taught You

History is full of things they left out.

The Battle of New Orleans was fought after the war ended. Play-Doh was invented to clean wallpaper. Andrew Jackson's parrot had to be removed from his funeral for swearing. A police officer once stopped the President of the United States for speeding — and the President told him to do his job.

These are real stories from American history. Not the simplified version taught in school — the full version, with all the strange details left in.

The President Who Got a Speeding Ticket collects 199 true stories across twelve chapters covering presidents, wars, inventions, disasters, laws, and the people who shaped American history in ways that never made it into the textbook.

Everything in this book really happened.
