Recently there was an article about Booth and Montreal on a Canadian website:

Anyone familiar with this book? “Booth was definitely in and out (of Montreal), and he may well have discussed this plan, but they were never able to nail it,” said Adam Mayers, who authored “Dixie & the Dominion: Canada, the Confederacy and the War for the Union.”

I'm not familiar with it or Clayton Gray's Book "Conspiracy in Canada.

But, a good used copy of Mayers's book is available for less than $6 if someone wants to read it and report back to us on it.
http://www.amazon.com/Dixie-Dominion-Can...915&sr=8-1

It's a Canadian publisher, so it may have more of a Canadian history perspective than an American.
So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
