"As a history major, I wish my required reading had been as well written as this truly vivid and emotionally engaging account of Lincoln's assassination. And as a former combat infantry officer, I found myself running for cover at the Civil War battle scenes.

Synopsis
The mega bestseller that launched a franchise--a riveting history of the heart-stopping events surrounding the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, A riveting historical narrative of the heart-stopping events surrounding the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, and the first work of history from mega-bestselling author Bill O'Reilly The iconic anchor of The O'Reilly Factor recounts one of the most dramatic stories in American history--how one gunshot changed the country forever. In the spring of 1865, the bloody saga of America's Civil War finally comes to an end after a series of increasingly harrowing battles. President Abraham Lincoln's generous terms for Robert E. Lee's surrender are devised to fulfill Lincoln's dream of healing a divided nation, with the former Confederates allowed to reintegrate into American society. But one man and his band of murderous accomplices, perhaps reaching into the highest ranks of the U.S. government, are not appeased. In the midst of the patriotic celebrations in Washington D.C., John Wilkes Booth--charismatic ladies' man and impenitent racist--murders Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theatre. A furious manhunt ensues and Booth immediately becomes the country's most wanted fugitive. Lafayette C. Baker, a smart but shifty New York detective and former Union spy, unravels the string of clues leading to Booth, while federal forces track his accomplices. The thrilling chase ends in a fiery shootout and a series of court-ordered executions--including that of the first woman ever executed by the U.S. government, Mary Surratt. Featuring some of history's most remarkable figures, vivid detail, and page-turning action, Killing Lincoln is history that reads like a thriller.

    Approaches President Lincoln's assassination from the murder's viewpoint as well as that of his coconspirators.

    I listened to our local library audio book "Killing Lincoln". Decided it was worth owning the printed version. Was very pleased with the condition of this book. It's about 10 years old by now.

  • Reminds Americans how our beliefs can drive us to extremes

    In short, this Book will appeal to many, especially Civil War-buffs. The Authors employ an engaging writing-style with lots of background on key Battles and Players. Also good are descriptions of Lincoln's personal-life and his feelings about the War. And of course the Assassination is well-covered. O'Reilly reveals many new Facts which we must assume are true since he is a former History-teacher. However his use of language is not perfect. These are initial impressions--I haven't read the entire book yet.

  • Great book, makes you feel like you were there

    Gook price and fast shipment. Book in great shape. Killing Lincoln is a well written account of Lincoln's last days and also an account of John Wilkes Booth. Very informative, extremely interesting, great detail on the happenings surrounding President Lincoln's death.

  • Good Book.

    This is one of Bill's better killing series books. I have read almost all of them. I am glad however, that I did find it on eBay for a discounted price. Bill's prices are too much.

  • Sincere, sharp, heart-wrenchingly accurate. Lincoln would have been proud!

    The experience of GETTING the book was simple, economical, and efficient. I couldn't have asked for better service. The book itself I bought to prove what an arrogant, self-serving author Bill O'Reilly could be. What I ended up getting was a history lesson that I have a hard time NOT labeling as the best book I've ever read. "Riveting" is just too weak of a word. In the first half of the book, it was hard to describe to other people what was happening without tears. People stopped me who saw it in my hand and asked about it. Friendships were created in the airport by people wanting to discuss it. NO ONE should wait much longer to read it. Thanks a lot for making a liar out of me, Bill!!!!
