In this podcast we delve into the election of 1896, The Presidency of William McKinley, and the Spanish American War. This period begins the transition of the United States into an Imperial Power.
We also get into the assassination of President McKinley, now the 3rd US president to be killed in office, which brings about the beginnings of full time security detail for the president. The secret service, up until this time, was primarily involved in protection from and hunting down counterfeiting operations! (That was all covered in our previous podcast on the History of Money in the United States!)
