Book Description:
|
John Tyler became president of the United States following William Harrisons death, after being in office for only one month. He was the first vice president to be thrust into the presidency and many felt that it should have been a temporary position until a new leader could be elected. Tyler disagreed and from day one made his own decisions and refused to let others control his presidency.
