Customer Reviews

I loved it.

I loved this book because it was short and to the point. I love history but most history books end up losing me after 300 pages. It has pictures of the individuals that were involved and it has you walk in President Lincoln's shoes on the last day of his life.

Excellant

This book is a brief summary of Lincoln's last hours of his life. It is very interesting and concise. I would highly recommend this book to anyone. Evelyn Hendricks

A concise primer.

I like that is is an easy read. For readers new to the subject, it presents the story in a topical manner that flows well. I am not new to the subject- having read dozens of books on the assassination the last 30 years- but it was still enjoyable to read.
