Killing Lincoln audio CD comes in 6 CDs for your listening and is read by Bill O'Reilly.
A riveting historical narrative of the heart-stopping events surrounding the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, and the first work of history from mega-bestselling author Bill O'Reilly
The anchor of The O'Reilly Factor recounts one of the most dramatic stories in American history-how one gunshot changed the country forever. In the spring of 1865, the Civil War finally comes to an end after a series of incredibly bloody battles. President Abraham Lincoln's generous terms for Robert E. Lee's surrender are devised to fulfill Lincoln's dream of healing a divided nation, with the former Confederates allowed to reintegrate into American society. One man and his band of murderous accomplices, perhaps reaching into the highest ranks of the U.S. government, are not appeased.
In the midst of the patriotic celebrations in Washington, D.C., John Wilkes Booth-charismatic ladies' man and impenitent racist-murders Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theater. A furious manhunt ensues and Booth immediately becomes the country's most wanted fugitive. Lafayette C. Baker, a brilliant but enigmatic New York detective and former Union spy, unravels the string of clues leading to Booth, while federal forces track his accomplices. The thrilling chase ends in a fiery shootout and a series of court-ordered executions-including that of the first woman ever executed by the U.S. government, Mary Surratt. With an unforgettable cast of characters, vivid historical detail, and page-turning action, Killing Lincoln is history that reads like a thriller. |

| I bought this for my father. He is currently fighting cancer at the VA in Dallas, Texas. My father has always been intrigued with the Civil War, and he absolutely LOVED this Audio CD! He commented that O'Reilly included facts that he's never known before, and he finished the CD's in 2 days!! Thank you so much for the opportunity to make my dad's last few months memorable! |

| This was an awesome CD. I got the CDs to listen to while traveling. I would find myself sitting in the car after I got to my location to hear the end of a chapter. I feel everyone should read or listen to the CDs! My brother and I both said, I don't remember that from school. Bill you did an amazing job pulling everything together for this book! Thank you!
You are truly amazing |
