This is the story of the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. It tells of events surrounding and leading up to the death of President Lincoln. I found this book quite interesting. I am not a history buff, but this book fortunately did not read like a history book and therefore was easy to read. It told of many events that were going on around the time that Lincoln was killed that I did not remember about from school, and it showed life from the perspective of the man who planned to at first just kidnap the president and then changed to assassination. I really did not know that so many people were involved in the plot. I know that it is a controversial book but I found it to be good. Definitely out of my ordinary range of book reading so not a kid book, but after discussing it with my book group a good discussion book for all adults.Purchased at Costco
