Will-Weber begins by examining the drinking habits of the Founding Fathers. He shows that many of these men were heavy drinkers, and that alcohol played a significant role in the social and political life of the early republic.

As the United States grew and changed, so did the drinking habits of its presidents. In the 19th century, temperance movements gained popularity, and many presidents began to abstain from alcohol. However, there were still some notable exceptions, such as Ulysses S. Grant, who was known for his love of whiskey.

In the 20th century, the drinking habits of presidents became more moderate. However, alcohol continued to play a role in the lives of many presidents, both personally and politically.

The Complete History of Presidential Drinking is a fascinating and entertaining read for anyone interested in the history of the United States or the role of alcohol in society.
