Killing Lincoln audio CD comes in 6 CDs for your listening and is read by Bill O'Reilly.
A riveting historical narrative of the heart-stopping events surrounding the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, and the first work of history from mega-bestselling author Bill O'Reilly
The anchor of The O'Reilly Factor recounts one of the most dramatic stories in American history-how one gunshot changed the country forever. In the spring of 1865, the Civil War finally comes to an end after a series of incredibly bloody battles. President Abraham Lincoln's generous terms for Robert E. Lee's surrender are devised to fulfill Lincoln's dream of healing a divided nation, with the former Confederates allowed to reintegrate into American society. One man and his band of murderous accomplices, perhaps reaching into the highest ranks of the U.S. government, are not appeased.
In the midst of the patriotic celebrations in Washington, D.C., John Wilkes Booth-charismatic ladies' man and impenitent racist-murders Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theater. A furious manhunt ensues and Booth immediately becomes the country's most wanted fugitive. Lafayette C. Baker, a brilliant but enigmatic New York detective and former Union spy, unravels the string of clues leading to Booth, while federal forces track his accomplices. The thrilling chase ends in a fiery shootout and a series of court-ordered executions-including that of the first woman ever executed by the U.S. government, Mary Surratt. With an unforgettable cast of characters, vivid historical detail, and page-turning action, Killing Lincoln is history that reads like a thriller. |

| Hooray!! We finally got to listen to our Killing Lincoln on cd. It took great discipline but we managed to save listening till our trip to Illinois this month. Great Historical book and great way to make the 8 hours of driving pleasant; even the 2 hour delay on the interstate. Thoroughly enjoyed the book and learned many new things we'd never heard before. THANKS!!! |

| First time ordering from O'Reilly store-everything went very smoothly. Received CD and replica of Gettysburg Address in fine condition. Will give Address as a Christmas present. We usually listen as we eat lunch, (my husband and I are both retired), and have found the story to be absolutely fascinating. There is so much information that you didn't know, but thought you did. Very good reading, with no stumbling or hesitation. Thanks, O'Reilly!! |
