RE: The Reason Lincoln Had to Die
If you want a good laugh, read the introduction and sample chapter provided in the link.
I did not not know that Margaret Coleman was one of the conspirators. We are told that Powell did not carry a pistol into Seward's house and never attempted to use one as either a firearm or a club. Stanton and Booth knowing he would not do, arranged for a pistol to be planted there in advance as only the presence of a firearm-I am not making this up-would convince people of Confederate complicity. Now I realize the Seward family was traumatized by the attack but the author's assertion they did not realize until the next day that Frederick Seward suffered severe injuries on 4/14/65 is laughable.
