We tend to think of the assassinations of American Presidents as being quick and
sudden affairs — such as when killers pulled the trigger on their weapons and
took the lives of men like Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. But the death of
President James Garfield was very different. We talked with Garfield biographer
CW Goodyear about the horrible lingering death of this President — and also how
it helped spur inventions like air conditioning and the metal detector.
You can buy C.W. Goodyear's book — PRESIDENT JAMES GARFIELD — at Amazon.
