Discover the remarkable life of Rutherford B. Hayes...
Rutherford B. Hayes may not be the most famous president in US history, but his time in office was quite consequential all the same. He entered the White House under a cloud of controversy in one of the most contested elections the country had ever seen, yet he refused to let scandal define his presidency. Against all odds, he persevered.
As the 19th president, Hayes proved himself a reformer and a man of principle. He fought to break up the corrupt spoils system that had plagued Washington for decades, put down strikes, and worked to restore faith in American currency and institutions. From his childhood scarred by tragedy to his heroic service in the Civil War, Rutherford B. Hayes lived a life of integrity. His legacy endures not because he sought glory, but because he kept his word and put country above personal ambition. This is his life and his story in full.
