Bloody Times: The Funeral of Abraham Lincoln and the Manhunt for Jefferson Davis

(3) YA Swanson adapts his adult work Bloody Crimes about Abraham Lincoln's funeral and the hunt for Jefferson Davis as the Civil War ended. The narrative uses alternating, parallel story lines to highlight events as the nation (mostly northerners) mourned one man and called for the other's head. Highly informative, with archival photographs and prints enhancing the work. Reading list. Glos.
