Did President Warren G. Harding really die of natural causes… or is the century-old rumor true — that he may have been poisoned during a fateful stop in Alaska?
In this Off the Map Conversation, I sit down with journalist and author Walter G. Meyer, who worked in Denali National Park and was introduced to the local legend tied to Harding’s final days. We explore Harding’s unconventional presidency, the infamous Teapot Dome scandal, his dramatic 1923 tour of Alaska, and the suspicious circumstances surrounding his rapid decline and death in San Francisco.
