  STEP BEYOND THE ENVELOPE AND UNLOCK EXTRAORDINARY WEALTH 
  Have you ever wondered how a small, unassuming piece of mail could spark fortunes beyond imagination? How everyday hopefuls turned unremarkable letters into lavish lifestyles, and how certain entrepreneurs rode the waves of public desire—sometimes skating dangerously close to the edge of legality? In these pages, you’ll dive headfirst into the history, drama, and backstage machinations of the most infamous and profitable mail-based schemes ever devised. 
  DISCOVER THE DARING TACTICS BEHIND MASSIVE MAIL ORDER GAINS 
  Far from the humdrum image of envelopes piling up on the kitchen counter, the stories you’ll encounter reveal how postcards, catalogs, and bulletins offered up miraculous opportunities—at least on the surface. From audacious “work-from-home” promises that lured tens of thousands, to glossy promotions that promised utopian lifestyles, these tales showcase human ingenuity for better or worse. Part marketing brilliance, part psychological manipulation, the most successful mail order campaigns exploited a timeless combination of aspiration and social proof. Through each wild twist, you’ll witness how cunning copywriters pushed emotional buttons, how multi-step funnels reeled in unsuspecting buyers, and how certain “insiders” walked away with fortunes rivaling the biggest corporate moguls. 
  So whether you’re an entrepreneur seeking a competitive edge, a curious reader fascinated by the extremes of human ingenuity, or a cautious skeptic wanting to shield yourself from dubious pitches, this in-depth look will captivate and educate you. 
  Step inside, and discover just how far creativity, ambition, and a willingness to push ethical boundaries can take someone when the entire world is just an envelope away.

  Assassinated Presidents The: The...

  Until April 14, 1865, John Wilkes Booth was one of the most famous actors of his time, and President Abraham Lincoln had even watched him perform. But his most significant performance at a theater did not take place on the stage. That night, Booth became one of history’s most infamous assassins when he assassinated President Lincoln at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D.C. 
  	In 1880, Garfield ran as a Republican for president, and one of his supporters was a man named Charles Guiteau, who wrote and circulated a speech called “Garfield vs. Hancock” that aimed to rally support for the Republican candidate. Though few knew it, Guiteau’s family had already deemed him insane and attempted to keep him committed in an asylum, only to have him manage an escape from confinement. Garfield went on to narrowly edge Winfield Scott Hancock in the election, and Guiteau, harboring delusions of grandeur, believed he had helped tip the scales in Garfield’s favor.  
  President James Garfield had been assassinated just 20 years earlier, but McKinley didn’t worry about presidential security or his own safety, and that was the case in Buffalo. McKinley’s insistence on greeting the public and shaking hands allowed Czolgosz to walk up to him on September 6, 1901 at a public reception in the Temple of Music on the expo grounds and shoot him point blank, with one bullet grazing the president and another lodging in his abdomen.  
  In many ways, John Fitzgerald Kennedy and his young family were the perfect embodiment of the ‘60s. The decade began with a sense of idealism, personified by the attractive Kennedy, his beautiful and fashionable wife Jackie, and his young children. Months into his presidency, Kennedy exhorted the country to reach for the stars, calling upon the nation to send a man to the Moon and back by the end of the decade. But the idealism and optimism of the decade was quickly shattered, starting with Kennedy’s assassination in 1963.
