I wanted to share this video with you. This is a full-length segment of CSPAN's Book TV with Candice Millard - author of
Destiny of the Republic about President James A. Garfield. She speaks at the James A. Garfield Historic Site about the book and the man. I encourage you to watch this segment (it's 54 minutes long) and learn something about this great man.
I had intended to write a post today about his surprise election - however I found this video which does talk about his election in a much more eloquent manner and provides additional information about the man.
It doesn't allow embedding, so here is the
link. Hope you enjoy it!
