Lincoln’s Assassination
The assassination of Abraham Lincoln is perhaps the most memorable in American history. On April 14th, 1865, while watching a performance of Our American Cousin at Ford’s Theatre in Washington D.C., John Wilkes Booth sneaked up behind him and shot him. It wasn’t the first attempt on the president’s life, but it would be a successful one. The assassination took place exactly 5 days after the American Civil War ended.
