RE: Atlantic article on Lincoln's survival
According to 20 Days, "The President was stuck in the back of his head, yet the orbital plates of both eye sockets had been cracked by "contre-coup", or transmitted force, the phenomenon which causes breakage at points opposite the point of impact" The photo on p.94 shows a severely cracked skull. Hard to believe any one could survive that, even with modern medical care.
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in? |
