Media Reviews
An unalloyed delight. -- Cleveland Plain Dealer. Hanchett [spoils] a lot of fun for the crackpots, the paranoids, and the not-so-artful deceivers who have inhabited the Lincoln assassination field. -- History Book Club Review. Sketches the fevered, anti-Lincoln atmosphere in which Booth acted, and offers the most plausible account we are ever likely to have of his real motivation. -- American Heritage
