This book is a re-construction of the events surrounding Abe Lincoln's tragic death. It is not historical in the sense of being overtly biased or in creating yet another variation of political intrigue to explain all current beliefs. Instead it attempts to use all the known facts and then questions all un-proven accounts or agendas, such as the many varied and contradictory postulations given by historians; and by questioning official accounts as well as casual hearsay and politically biased agendas. This method gives a more logical and balanced analysis that stands up to logic using the powers of objectivity and deductive reasoning with no more than...a minimal amount of perspective and common sense.
It does this by closely examining the critical known events and by revealing all of the creative illusions used to deceive the public, both in the Ford theatre and later by un-ravelling the pre-fabricated stories telegraphed to the press. These patent methods and graphic illusions were practiced and projected both in the theatre and in the escape and capture of the supposed assassins. The results are startling and evidence is gradually built up to show a totally different series of probabilities.
This process progressively reveals all the illusions such that in the final chapter it is able to disclose shocking and irrefutable photographic evidence; which finally confirms the more probable truths of the author's accounts in all of 22 chapters and over 70 illustrations.
In the process it names all the real characters ...the real heroes and also the real villains actively involved in this stupidly contrived and un-necessary political plot. This plot if successful aimed to eliminate Vice-President Andrew Johnson , Secretary of State - William H.Seward as well as President Lincoln all on that same fateful night on Good Friday 1865.
The reasons behind the plot are actively explored and cover a wide range of geo-political and powerful economic reasons involving threats from foreign powers and internal extreme right wing elements of the government. And also because Lincoln had printed greenbacks (fiat currency) to pay for the war with no interest. But later he intended to reverse the National Bank Act of 1863 to limit the power of the central banks over the Union, its citizens and its economy.
The strongest indicators were highlighted more specifically by the House of Congress Commission that eventually after over-ruled the more than generous Committee on Claims in favouring the NDP; however instead it naively ruled that the immediate financial rewards (and promotions) were to be shared roughly 80/20 by the army and the NDP. This in total amounted to 100,000 dollars for the pursuit and capture of the supposed assassins, a relatively small price to un-knowingly pay for the murder of the President.
