Bloody Crimes - by James L Swanson (Paperback)

Bloody Crimes by James L.

Swanson is a gripping true-crime thriller that delves into two epic events of the Civil War era - the chase to apprehend Confederate president Jefferson Davis and the momentous 20-day funeral that took Abraham Lincoln's body home to Springfield.

With dozens of rare historical images, this book brings to life a fascinating tale full of twists and turns.

As the Yankees approached Richmond on April 2, 1865, Davis fled, setting off an intense chase that Union cavalry hunted him relentlessly.

Two weeks later, President Lincoln was assassinated, and Davis was suspected to be involved in the crime.

This book is a must-read for civil war buffs, general readers, and everyone in between.
