Make no mistake: Our founding fathers were more
bandanas-and-muscles than powdered-wigs-and-tea.
As a prisoner of war, Andrew Jackson walked several miles barefoot
across state lines while suffering from smallpox and a serious head
wound received when he refused to polish the boots of the soldiers
who had taken him captive. "He was thirteen years old. "A few
decades later, he became the first popularly elected president and
served the nation, pausing briefly only to beat a would-be assassin
with a cane to within an inch of his life. Theodore Roosevelt had
asthma, was blind in one eye, survived multiple gunshot wounds, had
only one regret (that there were no wars to fight under his
presidency), and was the first U.S. president to win the Medal of
Honor, which he did "after he died. "Faced with the choice, George
Washington actually preferred the sound of bullets whizzing by his
head in battle "over the sound of silence. "
And now these men--these hallowed leaders of the free world--want
to kick your ass.
Plenty of historians can tell you which president had the most
effective economic strategies, and which president helped shape our
current political parties, but can any of them tell you what to do
if you encounter Chester A. Arthur in a bare-knuckled boxing fight?
This book will teach you how to be better, stronger, faster, and
more deadly than the most powerful (and craziest) men in history.
You're welcome.
