Goodwin points to presidential traits in new book
Thursday, October 18, 2018
Dr. Doris Kearns Goodwin is a historian, professor at Harvard, and an award-winning author. Her writings have, for the most part, been biographical about several presidents. Perhaps the most famous of her books is "A Team of Rivals" about Lincoln and his cabinet.

Kearns latest book to address, "Leadership: In Turbulent Times."
