------------------------------------------------------

This is a whole-life biography of Hayes. It begins with quite a bit of family history and goes to the day of his death, without any denouement. It's a bit light on his presidency, concentrating more on the contested election. I thoroughly enjoyed the early part of the book; Barnard gives us a real sense of who Hayes was.
