    There are times I sit in the car to listen to more even after reaching my destination. I love this show and am learning fascinating things with every episode. How little we were taught in school about Lincoln’s assassination and his assassin. I appreciate this opportunity to learn about a piece of history that I thought I knew.

  • Well written but historically soft

    It’s really a tired trope to call someone a “cult leader” just because you disagree with them. John Wilkes Booth is already the villain in this story, why embellish the facts to further vilify him?

Intriguing I still haven’t heard of Lincoln’s suspension of habeas corpus nor his stated intention to never free the slaves upon his election to the presidency (maybe it comes later)... more
