Four presidents murdered. Four more who barely survived. And the attacks keep coming.Since Abraham Lincoln was shot in Ford's Theatre on April 14, 1865, the presidency of the United States has been the most dangerous job in the world. In this gripping account, author John Dean Bush takes readers through every assassination, every attempt, and every foiled plot against America's leaders — from the gaslit theater box where Lincoln fell to the rifle shot that grazed Donald Trump's ear at a Pennsylvania rally in 2024, to the armed intruder who stormed the White House Correspondents' Dinner in 2026.Every chapter tells a story you won't forget. James Garfield, killed not by his assassin's bullet but by his own doctors' unwashed hands. William McKinley, shot at a world's fair while shaking hands with the public he refused to hide from. Theodore Roosevelt, who took a bullet in the chest and delivered a ninety-minute speech before going to the hospital. Franklin Roosevelt, nearly killed before he ever took the oath of office. Harry Truman, napping upstairs at Blair House while a gunfight raged at his front door. John F. Kennedy, and the questions that have never been fully answered. Robert Kennedy, cut down the night he won California. Martin Luther King Jr., shot on a Memphis balcony at 39. Huey Long, the most powerful politician in America, gunned down in the marble corridors of his own capitol. Malcolm X, silenced just as his thinking was becoming most dangerous to the status quo. Gerald Ford, targeted twice in a single month. Ronald Reagan, who faced death with a quip and a smile. George H.W. Bush, the target of a foreign government's assassination plot after leaving office. Bill Clinton, whose White House was shot at and crashed into within the same week. George W. Bush, who stood at a podium while a live grenade landed sixty-five feet away.©2026 John Dean Bush (P)2026 John Dean Bush
