Lincoln's Assassins: Their Trial .. James L. Swanson. Daniel Weinberg 1/5/2008 6:59:50 PM
Below is my review of "Lincoln's Assassins: Their Trial and Execution". By authors James L. Swanson and Daniel Weinberg Reginald Johnson's sales training programs/audio cds are available at: http://www.success-tapes.com
I give the highest rating to this exceptional book. For this genre, Swanson and Weinberg have a set a new standard of excellence. It is about events that occurred after the assassination and burial of President Abraham Lincoln. Some may find the plot morbid, none-the-less, it is enticing for anyone searching for truth, justice, and a good-old-fashion read.
Those who study numerology might find it amusing that James Swanson and President Lincoln were born on the same day. Like many successful entrepreneurs, Mr. Swanson discovered at an early age, his passion in life (he started collecting artifacts about President Lincoln when he was ten years old).
Even though the events took place more than one hundred thirty years ago, the authors have compiled evidence and supporting materials in a way one can still explore the suspense, mystery, and intrigue that was evidently experienced by those living during this historical period.
Napoleon Bonaparte once said: “A picture is worth a thousand words.” If you accept this premise, you will love this book as there are scores of photographs (along with eloquently done text) that help the reader form a compelling analysis how events occurred.
“Lincoln’s Assassins” reads like an episode of the television drama, “24”. Each page kept me tantalized, captivated, and riveted. One of the eight facing execution was Mary Surratt. The human drama, suspense, and turmoil involving her part in the plot (by itself) make it a worthy investment.
