| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The term Curse of Tippecanoe is used to describe the pattern where from 1840 to 1960 each American President who won election in a year ending in zero (such as 1880 or 1900) died in office. It was broken by Ronald Reagan, who survived a shooting in 1981, and George W. Bush who finished his two terms. Read biographies on Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, Warren Harding, Franklin Roosevelt, and more.
