RE: The Reason Lincoln Had to Die
In his Acknowledgments (which are not signed in any way by the author), "Mr. Thomas" credits help from a John Kerr who once lived behind "Mr. Thomas's" parents in Powhatan, Virginia, but now live in Glen Allen, Virginia. I checked Mr. Kerr out, and he exists. He also thanks the illustrator, Mary Firestone Foore, for her two sketches - one of which supposedly shows how Booth was dressed as he entered the Presidential Box, complete with his dagger belted around his waist OUTSIDE of his coat. I have not yet located Ms. Foore. The last half-page or so is commending Mr. Wesley for his wonderful work and support.
Other than his name on the cover and spine and inside on a reference to more upcoming books, I can find no other mention of Don Thomas. I always like to know something about an author when reading his work. |
