The Trial: The Assassination of President Lincoln and the Trial of the Conspirators Paperback – Illustrated, January 1, 2013

A few weeks ago I wrote a bad review of this book. I suppose it was just because I had a bad day at the office so to speak. I had quickly scanned through the book and at first glance it wasn't what i thought it would be. But after actually taking the time to read it I was overwhelmed and felt bad about the review I gave earlier. This is a great book with good insight by many of the leading Lincoln scholars. So i stand corrected and highly recommend this book.

Summary at the beginning of the book is excellent. The trial transcript has only witness answers, so less than perfect.

An interesting take on a very long and drawn out transcript. Mr. Steers has done a great job of bringing together experts in the field of the Lincoln Assassination and letting them share their knowledge and opinions in their area of expertise! Not to mention a very good resource for the transcript of the entire trial. I believe this is a reference book to be used for generations!

Perfectly described, and got it quickly. Awesome book for my brother in law's collection.

Items delivered quick & just as stated.

the condition of book ...Excellent

This is an excellent addition to the Lincoln Assassination memorabilia I have collected through the years. Informative and a great account of the trial from actual transcripts. Worth the money and more.

This book is a necessity for anyone interested in this fascinating subject.
