نفرین قاین: داستان ناگفته جان ویلکس بوت

Written by Booth's great-grandson thrice removed, this book retells in dramatic form another version of the Booth saga, one carried down through the family's oral history. Based on award-winning research, this work will tantalize the reader with insights and details known only to the immediate family and a few scholars, offering a new perspective on this crucial moment in American history. The author provides evidence that powerful friends helped Booth escape to Asia where he wandered the earth, a ghost of a man wracked by despair and guilt, before returning to his country in later life. Rare family photos and dramatic anecdotes add an atmosphere of mystery to this epic tragedy. On the night of April 14, 1865, a gunshot from a small derringer interrupted the laughter at Ford's Theater and forever changed American history.
