William Henry Harrison: A Life from Beginning to End

William Henry Harrison—the man who holds the record for the shortest tenure as a United States president—was in office for barely a month before he abruptly perished. For most, this is where the story of William Henry Harrison ends as just a mere footnote in history, but his life was much more than those last fitful few weeks.

Harrison had quite a career prior to his foray into the presidency. He served as a heroic and capable military commander and fought with distinction in the War of 1812. He was also responsible for concluding numerous treaties with native tribes, acquiring many millions of acres of land for American settlers. Yes, his life was indeed more than just that lone month he served as president. Here in this book, we will explore the life and legacy of William Henry Harrison in full.
