From a theatrical family, John Wilkes Booth is more famous, or even infamous, for the assassination of President Lincoln, than for his acting. This book aims to dive deeper into the man behind the mask, to find out if that man may not have inhabited multiple personas, who and what were his external influences and what his psychological make up may have been that ultimately led to that fateful day and the killing that robbed a nation of its leader.
