In the sweltering summer of 1881, a deranged office-seeker named Charles Guiteau fired two shots that would alter the course of American history. President James Garfield, just four months into his term, collapsed at the Baltimore and Potomac train station. "My God, what is this?" he gasped as he fell. The assassin calmly announced, "I am a Stalwart and Arthur is president now!" This shocking moment captivated the nation and set in motion changes that would transform American politics, medicine, and technology. Yet today, few Americans remember this pivotal chapter in our history. The story of Garfield's assassination reveals how a single moment of violence became a catalyst for profound national change, resonating with issues we still grapple with today: medical ethics, political division, and the power of technological innovation to shape our lives.
