corar 's review for:
Killing Lincoln: The Shocking Assassination That Changed America Forever
by Bill O'Reilly, Martin Dugard
Killing Lincoln tells the reader about the events surrounding the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. It starts out describing the end of the American Civil War, continues with the planning and implementation of the conspiracy to kill Lincoln, and concludes with the apprehension and punishment of the conspirators. It is written in a manner that tells a story, which was helpful for someone that does not read a lot of non-fiction. There is a lot of information available about the events and the people involved so O'Reilly and Dugard were able to make the people in the story come to life. If you already know a lot about this historical event, there was probably not much new. But for someone like me, who didn't know much more than the basic who, what, where and why, it was interesting. It was a quick and easy read for me and I learned a lot about a very important event in United States history.
