100 Days within the Lifetime of Rutherford Hayes

The best tragedy in all of American historic biography is that President Rutherford Hayes has been thrown within the trash. Ignored-or worse-dismissed as a median president, Hayes has, since he left workplace in 1881, grow to be one of many least regarded presidents in United States historical past. It’s time for the tide to show.

He was not flashy. He was not loud. He didn’t beat his chest and demand consideration. He was a person who has obtained little if any of the popularity to which he’s entitled.

On this consolidated biography, presidential fanatic Eric Ebinger selects 100 days within the lifetime of Hayes which, he believes, finest characterize Hayes’ character. Using the dramatic and revealing Hayes diary, Ebinger walks the reader via a exceptional, passionate, and in the end, noble life.

One factor is guaranteed–Rutherford B. Hayes doesn’t disappoint.
