Episode Details

My guest James Perloff discusses his new book "Exploding the Official Myths of the Lincoln Assassination." He shares the people associated with John Wilkes Booth, the yielding that occurred to allow Booth to get a clear inhibited shot, and how Booth was killed. He explains several of the inconsistencies and the omissions, the coverup, the questionable accounts, the lack of evidence hidden. I even got James to share his speculation who he might suspect gave Booth the orders.
