McKinley Assassination: A Documentary History of
William McKinley's Assassination

http://mckinleydeath.com/about.htm

To some, President William McKinley may disappear into
the ranks of those American presidents whose
accomplishments are little-known, if they are known at
all. Drawing on the work of recent scholars (and their
own keen interest in McKinley), the creators of this
website seek to provide information about McKinley
(and his assassination, obviously). In this process,
they have transcribed a host of important resources,
including articles, essays, editorials, news columns,
sermons, and so on. These resources serve both as a
lens into McKinley's life as well as American history
and culture. With a homepage that features a crisp
design, visitors can look over such sections as
"Quotes About", "Documents", and "Resources". For
those uninitiated into the world of McKinley, the
"Quotes About" area is a good place to begin. Here
they will find quotes about the man himself, his
assassin Leon Czolgosz, his successor Theodore
Roosevelt, and the assassination. The "Documents" area
is a section that is well worth visiting, as it
contains a wide range of materials related to
McKinley's assassination, and a number of pieces of
reporting from the time that are quite valuable.
Finally, the site also has a series of indexes, which
will help users structure their time on the site in an
efficient manner.
