The Missouri in the Civil War Message Board

Re: William Tidwell

I was recently at the university of Virginia where my daughter will star next year as a freshman majoring in history. Since i am a civil war enthusiast i made arrangements to meet Gary Gallagher (civil war profeesor)to chat for a while. I mentioned that it bothered me that Booth had spent so much time in Montreal and i asked what he thought Booth was up to? Thats when he mentioned Come Retribution to me. I have since read it as well as April 65 and I was blown away. Why isn't this known by the general public? Why has there not been a "Ken Burns Like" documentary on this. It is shocking that this has not caused more of a stir.

Why do you think that is?
