Mary Lincoln Extra Credit Questions

[Anita]

Yes Eva, it was Raymond's book she was referring to, with the title of "The life and public services of Abraham Lincoln ... together with his state papers, including his speeches, addresses, messages, letters, and proclamations, and the closing scenes connected with his life and death. By Henry J. Raymond. To which are added anecdotes and personal reminiscences of President Lincoln, by Frank B. Carpenter."

This book was published in August 1865. She read a borrowed a copy of the book in November of 1865. I found the information at http://quod.lib.umich.edu/j/jala/2629860...w=fulltext
