Description

Compelling and revealing information in the form of papers and diaries have recently been found in private collections--materials which provide greater insight into the events leading up to the assassination of Lincoln as well as details of the pursuit and capture of the man the government claimed was Booth. This new information along with a critical reexamination of the traditional historical materials provide more than sufficient reason to challenge the long-held assumption that John Wilkes Booth was killed by government agents in Virginia. Leading the reader through a series of amazing coincidences and details, this book presents startling evidence that John Wilkes Booth, the assassin of President Abraham Lincoln, was never captured, but escaped to live for decades, continue his acting career, marry, and have children!
