There is a new trailer out for the Netflix original series about the assassination of President James Garfield. The series premiers on November 6, 2023. It is a little bit unusual!
Garfield was a pre-war Abolitionist and college president. He enlisted in the Union Army and was promoted to Major General. During the war he was elected to Congress as a Republican and he was a leading light during Reconstruction. He was elected president in 1880 and was killed less than a year later by a “disappointed office seeker.”
