There is a PBS American Experience documentary on the Lincoln assassination. Just watch it.Pogo good evening one of my French friends an expert about lincoln he knows everything about him, all that needs to know.January 1, 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, he proclaimed the Emancipation of all the blacks of America.
Actually the Emancipation Proclamation did not do that. I believe it declared to be free those blacks who were living in parts of the Confederacy that were at the time controlled by the Union. Which gave him more soldiers.
I make some thread about History some subject i know more ( French History) but i like the American History still if my english is not so good.
Dalia.I dont know near as much of the the situation of Lincolns assassin john wilkes booth as i would like to so i was wondering,does your friend know a lot about his assassination? i can pretty much tell you I am an enyclpedia when it comes to the JFK assassination but lincolns i dont know near as much about as i wish i did.
however once i was watching unsolved mysterios and something they said on there i thought was really funny was about the lincoln assassination because it was so crazy it was comical.it was very similair to the oswald situation.we know that the man they said was oswald could not have been the birth lee harvey oswald gunned down because there were way too many descrepancys in his height and weight as well as certain berthmarks he had that were not on the man in the basement.
well it was the same thing they were saying on that show i remember once,they were saying that booth came to the doctor and the doctor that examined him said,the man i examined did not have this birthmark that john wilkes booth did,john wilkes booth was such and such tall,this guy is not that tall,he did not have any of these that john wilkes booth has but this is defientely john wilkes booth,
pretty comical dont you agree? please ask your friend if he is aware of any of that thanks.
While Dr. Mudd was not part of the conspiracy with Booth, Mudd still got imprisoned for treating Booth's broken leg/ankle.
As I mentioned above, this got Mudd imprisoned for several years on the island prison of Dry Tortugas in the Florida Keys. This is the furthermost key island in the chain all the way out to the west.
