Bloody Crimes : The Chase For Jefferson Davis And The Death Pageant For Lincoln's Corpse
by James L. Swanson

The subtitle should be reversed because the first half of the book covers the thirteen city funeral procession (by train) for Abraham Lincoln and the latter half is the chase for Jefferson Davis.
I can't believe that I am actually putting this book on this blog. I thought for sure that it would be on my book-a-holics blog. After all, I slogged through 403 pages. But, Bloody Crimes is NOTHING like Swanson's previous book Manhunt (the hunt, chase and capture of John Wilkes Booth).
There were some interesting tidbits about Lincoln and Davis, but most of the book was plodding, repetitious and dry.
Very disappointing.
