"Cable-news talking head O'Reilly . . . and historian Dugard . . . serve up a sensational, true-crime account of one of the most shocking murders in American history. . . . An entertaining tale that neither adds to the vast bulk of Lincoln scholarship nor challenges the established theories of Booth's plot and the subsequent trial of the conspirators."
