Publisher Description: Three days before his assassination Abraham Lincoln had a dream. In it, he awoke to the sound of subdued cries. Slowly, he walked down the stairs and into the East Room of the White House where he was met with a sickening surprise. Before him, lay a catafalque on which rested a corpse wrapped in funeral vestments. Soldiers stood guard as mourners filed past the body."Who is dead in the White House," demanded Lincoln. "The President," replied a soldier. "He was killed by an assassin."April 14th, 1865 began like any other day for John Wilkes Booth until Harry Ford told him that Lincoln and Grant planned to attend the theatre that night. After Ford said those words, the wheels in Booth's head began to spin.Although neither Lincoln or Booth knew it, they were on a collision course with destiny. |
