Backstage at the Lincoln Assassination

[Anita]

I second Matt's congrats to Mr. Bogar. I just finished the book. Finally I'm out of the audience! So much meat here I need to go back and make an outline. Much of the material is new to me.

In addition to facts related to the assassination, it's an informative period snapshot of acting, theater, public sentiment regarding entertainment and entertainers, differences between Northern and Southern audiences and much more. I'd often wondered what happened to the Fords and the theater personnel. Bogar provides closure here.
