Helferich, Gerard. Theodore Roosevelt and the assassin [ER], 2013 : publisher-supplied information ("John Flammang Schrank--a lonely Manhattan saloonkeeper--was obsessed with the 1912 presidential election and Theodore Roosevelt. The ex-president's extremism and third-term campaign were downright un-American. Convinced that TR would ignite civil war and leave the nation open to foreign invasion, Schrank answered what he believed to be a divine summons, buying a gun and stalking Roosevelt across seven Southern and Midwestern states," Schrank attempt to assassinate Roosevelt in Milwaukee in 1912.)
