AI overview
James A. Garfield was the 20th president of the United States, serving only from March until his death in September 1881 after being shot in July of that year. His presidency is historically notable because he was the only sitting member of the House of Representatives to be elected president, and he had a distinguished background as a preacher, lawyer, and Civil War general before his nine terms in Congress.
