In "King of Hearts," G. Wayne Miller meticulously recounts the groundbreaking story of Dr. C. Walton Lillehei and a daring group of Minnesota surgeons who pioneered open heart surgery. Through in-depth research and exclusive interviews, the audiobook explores their journey from the 1950s when they performed unprecedented dual operations, risking lives and reputations, to achieving a medical revolution that made once-impossible heart repairs routine.
