You might take a look at Ancestors of American Presidents. Many libraries have it, and the second edition is apparently still in print and available from American Ancestors for less than $40.

The book sources for the presidential family trees. There are charts with royal descents, relationship between the presents, some Mayflower descents, interesting ancestries of some First Ladies, and other interesting relationship. It is not exciting reading, but is the sort of book most genealogists would enjoy.

PS President Clinton’s Ancestry is there.

The only way (I can think of) is to locate the parents of Bill Clinton and perform the "Relationship Finder" for each of the parents.

The following WikiTree Profiles are his parents...

Father: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Blythe-1
Mother:  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cassidy-4

... I think I had located Elizabeth Blythe....

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Blythe-369

... I then performed the following Relationship Finder between Elizabeth and each of the two parents of Bill Clinton.

https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Connection&action=connect&person1Name=Blythe-369&person2Name=Blythe-1&relation=0&ignoreIds=

https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Connection&action=connect&person1Name=Blythe-369&person2Name=Cassidy-4&relation=0&ignoreIds=

Now if you want to perform this for other family members, all you need to do is to go to the following link and place the 2 WikiTree ID's you want to locate the relationship of.

https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Connection

Please Note: The above 2 results reflect the "Connection Finder" results.

I hope I was able to explain this okay via text and Good Luck with your search! :-)
