Destiny of the Republic
A Tale of Madness, Medicine and the Murder of a President
When I started this book, I only knew that James Garfield was a past President and nothing else about him. This is an amazing story of popular man turned President who suffers a gunshot wound and the horrific medical decisions that were made to "save" him. So many interesting details of the times (1880-1881).
I couldn't put this book down. If you love history, you will love this book.
