This book by the Russian-language American journalist Alexei Orlov follows events of the 1830s through the subsequent centuries of American history. Between 1840 and 1960, all American presidents elected in years that are multiples of 20 were, cursed by the Indian Chief Tecumseh and died in office, either of natural causes or by assassination. Orlov's book discusses the tragic lives of these presidents, from William Henry Harrison, elected in 1840, to John Fitzgerald Kennedy, elected in 1960. Ronald Reagan, elected in 1980, was severely, wounded. George W. Bush, elected in 2000, narrowly avoided the fate of his bi-decennial predecessors. Has the Tecumseh curse lost its potency in the 21st century? No one can know for sure. We should avoid jumping to conclusions before the forthcoming 2020 election.
