Unabridged Audiobook
I learned so much about President Garfield and the story surrounding his assignation and subsequent death due to poor medical care. It was an excellent story and the narrator was superb.
I read a lot. This is in my top 10 of all times. What a conjecture of relevant history. I am upset that I knew so little of this giant!
This book was selected for a book club and very much outside of what I would normally read. The narrator did an excellent job telling the story of James Garfield. The book was well written and full of interesting facts about not only Garfield but his assassin Charles Guiteau, inventor Alexander Graham Bell, and others.
I was equally impressed with both the incredible book and the narration. I did not know anything about James Garfield but what a man. The description of the time, the people and the character of a nation was really fascinating and I would recommend this to anyone interested in U.S. History and a good story teller.
Like the story of the Titanic I knew the ending before I began to book. I thought the author did a good job of making you feel like you were there at the time and like everyone else was following the news reports hoping beyond hope of a different outcome than you knew was historically possible
