Editorial Review

Product Description
This book was written just a few years after McKinley was shot and killed in 1901. Here is the authors own words on why she decided to write the book:

"My excuse for placing this brief biography
of the late President McKinley before the
public is that there is a demand for just such
a work.

While there are several extended biogra-
phies and a multitude of articles to which
students can refer, the need of a brief account
adapted to youth, and suitable for school
work in preparation for McKinley Day exer-
cises, still exists; so I have endeavored to
relate the main facts in the life of William
McKinley, and have selected a few incidents
in his life, hoping that they may prove an
inspiration to many a boy to emulate that
high and noble example.

J. E. S. "

Product Description

When President William McKinley was murdered at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, on September 6, 1901, Americans were bereaved and frightened. Rumor ran rampant: A wild-eyed foreign anarchist with an unpronounceable name had killed the commander-in-chief. Eric Rauchway's brilliant Murdering McKinley restages Leon Czolgosz's hastily conducted trial and then traverses America with Dr. Vernon Briggs, a Boston alienist who sets out to discover why Czolgosz rose up to kill his president.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Transaction
Book was shipped promptly within the projected time frame.Quality of book met my expectations.Speedy delivery.

4-0 out of 5 stars A Changing America
The assassination of William McKinley is far less examined than those of Lincoln and Kennedy.If only for the relative obscurity of the topic alone, this deserves a look.While somewhat disappointing for a lack of focus, the book is quite informative.

The author's thesis seems to be that the assassination of McKinley was symbolic of America's discontent with conservativism and big business's hold on politics, bringing about the progressive movement and the emergence of Theodore Roosevelt.The title of the book would seem to imply a focus on the assassination of McKinley, which is not accurate.Make no mistake about it, the title of the book is deceiving.Rauchway goes for several pages at a time examining nothing but the rise of Roosevelt.In that respect, the author strays from delivering what the title of the book suggests and at times from supporting his apparent thesis.

One of the issues the book does a reasonable job of addressing is the story behind McKinley's assassin, Leon Czolgosz.Alienist Vernon Briggs investigated the life of Czolgosz only to find the powerful businesses that McKinley shielded were a key part of the environment that created the assassin.In the process of his investigation, Briggs brings the issue of the insanity defense to the attention of the American justice system.In this respect, Briggs's research had a major impact on the judicial system.

Without the significant digressions into the social changes brought about by the Roosevelt administration, this book would be much thinner.Perhaps that is why Rauchway chose to include it.Even with the digressions, the book is decidedly thin.I enjoyed the book even though I believe it could have been composed with a much better sense of focus.

3-0 out of 5 stars The Concept Of This Book Was More Interesting Than The Book Itself
Those who have noticed my growing list of reviews will find a lot of things reviewed, including several books on history.If you are one of those, you may notice that these books deal with presidents of the late 1800's and early 1900's.Considering that McKinley is my favorite president, this book captured my interest.However, it failed to maintain it.

I noticed it goes along with the traditional view that McKinley was basically conservative, and that progressive Roosevelt became vice-president to get him out of the hair of NY boss Sen. Tom Platt.Having read Kevin Phillip's biography, I disagree with this assessment.I also found the comparisons between McKinley's assassin Leon Czolgosz (pronounced "Cholgosh") with Garfield's killer Charles Guiteau interesting, having read "Dark Horse" about Garfield.

This book looks at various aspects of the turn of the century outlook.It seems to see Roosevelt as the beneficiary of Czolgosz's crime.I find some of the former interesting, but the book continued to bore me.Like "Dark Horse", it is told as a story, but it would make an excellent bed-time story because I would be asleep in no time.

If you have a keen interest in the mindset of that period of time, I would recommend this book to you.Likewise, if you want to deal with what constitutes insanity, I would also suggest you read this book.However, if you want a book to keep your interest, this is not it.

5-0 out of 5 stars A great effort at a truly unique topic
The authors goal of trying to show how the 20th century was going to be radically different from the 19th is a tough one to pull of but Rauchway makes a valiant effort.This book deserves five starts because it takes a topic that no one else has attempted and presents the information well.There are a few minor errors that I discovered but on the whole it presents a useful history that when taken in context is an excellent segway into the era of American imperialism.Overall this is a good book that is a great read for those who have knowledge about the Gilded Age.

1-0 out of 5 stars Very First Page Contains a Glaring Error. Rest isn't Much Better
I'm sure the statement, as fact, that Emma Goldman "dismissed [Czolgosz] as a police informant" would come as a great surprise to Miss Goldman.Anyone who read her autobiography, living my life, or looked into the subject at all would know that it was her friend, the Mennonite anarchist Abraham Isaak, who published a warning about Czolgosz being a spy in his newspaper "Free Society." Goldman didn't really know Czolgosz (or even his real name), but she demanded Isaak publish a retraction as he had no proof of his allegation.She later blamed this kind of hostile treatment from the very Chicago anarchists she'd introduced Czolgosz to for driving him to "prove himself" through his attentat.

If you want to know about Anarchism and the period, don't buy this book. Buy "Living My Life," or read it right here for free: [...]

Frankly, that's what the author would have done if he'd cared about getting even the most basic facts correct.

Editorial Review

Product Description
This volume was published in 1904.


A FIRST WORD WITH THE READER.

Life is ever the greatest teacher. The story
of great men is of absorbing interest, not only
to youth but to thinking men at every stage of
their lives. The political biographer is not
likely to make much of the personal religious
character of the man the story of whose
political honor and ambitious career he
seeks to narrate. So that it often happens that
a public man whose religious life was most de-
vout and who drew the nourishment for his
most splendid deeds from the hidden springs
of worship and communion with God, stands
in the eye of the multitude as an unknown
quantity religiously. It has been the purpose
of the author in these chapters to present in the
case of the score of men and women whose
lives are studied the religious side of their
career. Such information has been sought
from every quarter available, and is presented
in a way which it is hoped will picture the
truthful and helpful Christian personality of
each character portrayed.
