Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine and the Murder of a President
This book made great strides in reforming my feelings on nonfiction. It has romance and humor, murder and malpractice, genius and madness, egos of outlandish proportions contrasted with unlikely heroism. If I had read this book in high school (you know, 20 years before it was written), I might have ended up a history major.
