Publisher's Synopsis

On April 14, 1865 America suffered the loss of one of it's greatest leaders. After General's Lee's surrender at Appomattox a few days earlier, the Civil War was coming to an end and Washington D.C. was in a celebratory mood. The city's jovial spirit would soon be changed by the actions of John Wilkes Booth, a man driven by ambition and a desire to avenge the South. In an elaborate plot devised to take place at Ford's Theatre, Booth became the first man to murder a President of the United States. This brief examination of Lincoln's assassination highlights every major detail from John Wilkes Booth's plot, to his escape through Maryland and Virginia, and the eventual fates of the other involved conspirators. The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln provides a concise retelling of this American tragedy with the assistance of images, illustrations and trivia sidebars.
