About the work

Destiny of the Republic

Candice Millard's history of James A. Garfield, a scholar and Civil War general who became president in 1881, and of Charles Guiteau, the deluded office-seeker who shot him; Garfield died weeks later, less from the bullet than from his doctors' unsanitary care.
