Aprašymas
This book is about the personal lives, the successes of the presidents of the United States, their religions, and dangers which many of them had plotted against them.As per their religion 12 of them were Episcopalians, nine Presbyterian, five Methodists, two Dutch reformed, two were Disciples of Christ, two Baptists and two Congregationalist and others of different movements.Assassination attempts and plots on Presidents of the United States have been numerous: more than 30 attempts to kill sitting and former presidents and presidents-elect are known. Four sitting presidents were killed, all of them by gunshot: Abraham Lincoln (the 16th President), James A. Garfield (the 20th President), William McKinley (the 25th President) and John F. Kennedy (the 35th President). Two presidents were injured in attempted assassinations, also by gunshot: Theodore Roosevelt (the 26th President; although not in office at the time) and Ronald Reagan (the 40th President).Although the historian James W. Clarke has suggested that most American assassinations were politically motivated actions, carried out by rational men, not all such attacks have been undertaken for political reasons. Some attackers had questionable mental stability, and a few were judged legally insane.
