“I just heard the news of the death of Dr. J. I. Packer, 19262020, one of the most important figures in Englishspeaking evangelicalism. His book, “Knowing God,” came to me as a lifeline when I was an 18yearold Christian. He introduced me to the Puritans and far more. 1/5”

Consider Accidental Presidents by Jared Cohen. Recommended by 10 sources.
“Accidental Presidents offers eight narrative portraits of men who succeeded to the U.S. presidency without election, using anecdote-rich scenes and readable context to show how personality and circumstance interact with office power. It’s strongest as a set of self-contained stories that make succession stakes concrete for non-specialist readers; it does not prioritize dense archival argument or exhaustive methodology, so expect some interpretive generalizations and repeated themes across cases. Use it for fast historical orientation rather than scholarly deep-dives.”
