Some presidents have been larger than life but none of them have been larger than death. This books collection of the presidents' last words, from Franklin Delano Roosevelt's "I have a terrific headache" to John Adams's "Thomas Jefferson still survives," offers a poignant and sometimes humorous look at the last moments of the great men. From their lives to their death scenes, from their funerals to their burial spots, this unique guidebook provides travelers with all the information needed to visit the graves and libraries of the presidents. -- Adapted from back cover.
