Interesting account of the last days of Lincoln’s life. Well written and intriguing book.
I enjoy some war description if it contributes to the overall story. Too much in this case, and I found myself glazing over at the description of obscure battles. I wanted much more of the crazy mind of Boothe.
Loved it! I am so excited that I decided to read it! I learned so much!
Killing Lincoln is a very in depth look at the President's last days, as well as the circumstances that surrounded him and his would be assassin. It questions the possibilities of conspiracy but lays out the facts in an efficient and enlightening manner. Honestly speaking, this is how nonfiction should be written - it flows and feels like a novel but contains all of the important details of a biography. well done bill o'reilly.

The anchor of The O'Reilly Factor recounts one of the most dramatic stories in American history—how one gunshot changed the country forever.
This was a good listen. I learned a lot of things I had no idea about. I believe everyone should listen to this at least once. It's better than a history class. Bill makes it sound like a thriller novel.
It's a very thorough account.

The story was wonderful - I learned so many things I had no idea were part of the Lincoln assassination. I listened to this one and that may have been my downfall - O'Reilly is not necessarily a narrator. I would encourage you to READ it though!!

This was a very informative book on the assassination of Lincoln. It details many of the eyewitnesses and the perpetrators’ accounts of the event. I wouldn’t say this is a non-biased account, but you can make your own conclusions on that! Definitely gruesome towards the end so just beware!
