The United States stood at a crossroads in the spring of 1896. The nation was still grappling with an economic depression, job unrest, and a deep cultural chasm between the industrial North and the agrarian South.
And at the center of this uncertainty was a quiet man from Ohio named William McKinley. He did not shout, did not swagger, and did not deliver speeches that left crowds breathless.
Yet, by the end of his presidency, America would emerge not just as a continental force, but as a global economic powerhouse. McKinley is rarely the first name that comes to mind when discussing transformative presidents.
There are no Hollywood blockbusters about him, no Mount Rushmore likeness, no great mythologizing of his speeches. But that's precisely why he's fascinating.
