Chasing Lincoln's Killer

This is one of those books that is assigned to you for school and after the first two or three chapters, you end up loving it. Chasing Lincoln's Killer is a nonfiction book, but it is presented in such a way that it is captivating and factual at the same time. 

This book is really about the twelve days after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and the lengths that Booth and his cohorts went to in order to stay hidden. They hid in swamps and forests and people's homes, always risking capture. This book always kept me on the edge of my seat.

I really recommend this book because I find very interesting for a nonfiction book, which don't usually draw the "teenage crowd". It seems like fiction and the author shows the information in a way that doesn't seem like an assignment, rather like a fascinating story you're going to want to know about.
