The conspirators were part of a pro-Southern secret society that didn't want an antislavery President in the White House. They planned an elaborate scheme to assassinate the brand new President in Baltimore as Lincoln's inauguration train passed through en route to the Capitol. The plot was investigated by famed detective Allan Pinkerton, who infiltrated the group with undercover agents, including one of the first female private detectives in America. Had the assassination succeeded, there would have been no Lincoln Presidency, and the course of the Civil War and American history would have forever been altered"--Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (p. 375-428) and index. 521 2 $a Adult $b Follett Library Resources 600 10 $a Lincoln, Abraham, $d 1809-1865 $x Assassination attempts. 650 0 $a Presidents $x Assassination attempts $z United States. 651 0 $a Baltimore (Md.) $x History $y Civil War, 1861-1865. 600 17 $a Lincoln, Abraham, $d 1809-1865. $2 sears 650 7 $a Presidents $z United States. $2 sears 650 7 $a Assassination. $2 sears 651 7 $a Baltimore (Md.) $x History. $2 sears 651 7 $a United States $x History $y 1861-1865, Civil War. $2 sears 700 1 $a Mensch, Josh. 521 2 $a Adult 510 0 $a Publishers Weekly 510 0 $a Booklist 510 0 $a Kirkus Review 941 $a 1 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20240726010202.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64B7FF164B1411EFB3EDF7214CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
