"Blood on the Moon: The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln" is the product of extensive research by Dr. Edward Steers Jr. into the assassination. Steers, a research scientist at the National Institute of Health, used his formal scientific training to help him evaluate the three major published records of the assassination investigation and trial. He then used the results to establish the merits of past scholarship, and arrive at the most plausible scenario for the assassination. Dr. Steers sought to firmly establish not only who perpetrated the assassination, but also why it was perpetrated, and who was responsible. He sticks to the facts, and avoids any speculation. The result is an exceptional, and eminently readable account.

Well Detailed
If you want to read just one book about the Lincoln Assassination, this is the book. It is detailed in order to give the reader the full picture of everything that happened, why it happened, the players, the outcomes.. "Manhunt" is another excellent book. But while "Manhunt " focuses on the 10 day hunt for President Lincoln's murderer, John Wilkes Booth, "Blood on the Moon" gives the reader the "whole" story. It is detailed and a fascinating story on what the country was going through at the time and how it led to a conspiracy to murder the President.
