“Killing Lincoln” — probably wouldn’t be a big hit in the UK as it is US history, but as a history goes, very well written–it carries through the 15 days or so after Lee surrenders at Appomattox through Lincoln’s assassination and the pursuit of John Wiles Booth—about 60% through it and a great read–one of those histories written in a fashion that you feel you are there seeing it through your own eyes.
