Last Confederate Heroes

[RJNorton]

I will be getting LCH, but I'd also like to add a plug for another of Bill's books titled Sic Semper Tyrannis. The book really helps those of us brought up in states like Illinois (I was raised in Oak Park) have a much better understanding of Booth and his mindset. If I were still teaching, and were trying to give the students a more comprehensive perspective of the driving forces in Booth's mind, I would use Bill's book as a resource for this. I certainly recommend it. It could lead to a great class discussion in which the students compare/contrast Bill's book to what they are reading in their own textbook.
