This short but scholarly book details those fateful hours of April 14, 1865. Every incident of the day is included, from the moment Lincoln arose until that evening when he died. Although basically a research book, it has a readable narrative style that sweeps readers along into the events of the day. Thus it should appeal to various types of students. Numerous illustrations, both photographs and drawings, add interest and realism. An appendix recounts some of the unsolved mysteries surrounding Lincoln's assassination. These include the suitability of his bodyguard that evening and the uncertainty of the autopsy findings. Extensive footnotes help to authenticate the material, and a lengthy bibliography documents the research.
