RE: If Lincoln had not died

Has anyone read the historical novel by Stephen Carter, The Impeachment of Abraham Lincoln? I have not, but a recent mention of it in the current issue of The Lincoln Herald has an interesting perspective.

"Carter states: 'I don't think that we should pretend that because [Abraham Lincoln] was heroic, amd because we admire him so, nothing he did can be questioned.' In his [Carter's] novel, Lincoln survives the assassination attempt on April 14, 1865, and articles of impeachment are passed by the House of Representatives by radicals and his own Republican party in an effort to remove him from office, as they believe him to be too soft on the defeated South. Congress complains about Lincoln's acts during the war, including suspending the writ of habeas corpus and jailing citizens."
