Historie

On the night of April 14, 1865, the nation reeled in horror as President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated at Ford’s Theatre by the famed actor John Wilkes Booth. In this gripping 19th-century account, journalist George Alfred Townsend delivers a detailed and chilling narrative of Booth’s descent into infamy, the conspiracy that rocked the nation, and the relentless manhunt that followed.

Townsend captures the atmosphere of the capital in mourning, the calculated nature of Booth’s crime, and the tragic unraveling of his fate and that of his fellow conspirators. With vivid prose and a journalist’s eye for detail, this is not just a retelling—it’s an immersive chronicle of one of America’s most shocking and consequential crimes.

Perfect for listeners fascinated by true crime, Civil War history, or political intrigue, this audiobook brings one of the darkest chapters in American history to life.
