RE: Thomas Jones
The Thomas Jones aspect of the assassination is one I find fascinating, though I only have basic knowledge of it. Just the fact that Jones did what he did, then for the most part just sat on that information for years is amazing to me. In one of the assassination books (can't remember which) there's the whole description of Jones sneaking Booth and Herold down to the river, that just keeps me on the edge of my seat. I can only imagine what that must have been like, when he went to the pine thicket and told them "it's time", and then the feeling he must have had heading back home after shoving them off into the Potomac….that is good stuff. I'll be clicking that link and reading that book for sure. In fact, I can't wait.
