On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan was just seventy days into his first term of office when John W. Hinckley, Jr., opened fire outside the Washington Hilton Hotel, wounding the president, press secretary James Brady, a Secret Service agent, and a D.C. police officer. For years, few people knew the truth about how close the president came to dying. Drawing on new interviews and material, Del Quentin Wilber tells the full electrifying story of a pivotal historical moment when the nation faced a terrifying crisis.
