Description
The life of James A. Garfield is recounted in this fictionalized biography from his youth in upstate New York to his brief presidency and tragic assassination. From a small and rudely-built log-cabin a sturdy boy of four years issued, and looked earnestly across the clearing to the pathway that led through the surrounding forest. His bare feet pressed the soft grass, which spread like a carpet before the door.
