On Friday evening, April 14, 1865, less than a week after the surrender of Confederate forces, John Wilkes Booth crept into Ford's Theatre and murdered Abraham Lincoln. Though it happened nearly 150 years ago, no one has been sure why it happened. In this riveting book, Harold Holzer, one of the country's leading authorities on Lincoln, sweeps away the fog of history to answer the questions surrounding Lincoln's assassination. He shows the conditions of the time that led to the tragic event at Ford's Theatre, and why those who hated Lincoln, such as John Wilkes Booth, sought such horrifying revenge. Filled with dramatic detail and illustrated with archival photographs, this book is bound to be considered an essential work for young readers.

The President Is Shot: The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln
At first glance this book probably looks like a boring book or a piece of material that your History teacher may make you read, but it's nothing close to boring, and if your History teacher does make you read this book then I applaude them for their good taste in books. "The President Is Shot!" talks about the assassination of President Lincoln shortly after the Civil war. Before purchasing this book I was always curious about the assassination of Lincoln and what was going on in John Wilkes Booths's head rigth before he shot Lincoln. This book has a lot of good info about Booth and Licoln, and the story isn't bad either. If your looking for a fun and easy way out of a book report then I wouldn't recommend this book to you but if you're looking for something a little different from your normal book routine then I would definetly recommend this one to you.
