edited by Edward Steers, Jr., and Harold Holzer ; with a foreword by Allen WeinsteinPublication Details

On May 1, 1865, two weeks after Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, recently inaugurated president Andrew Johnson appointed John Frederick Hartranft to command the military prison at the Washington Arsenal, where the U.S. government had just incarcerated the seven men and one woman accused of complicity in the shooting. In his Letterbook, Hartranft scrupulously recounts the arrival of each prisoner and describes the prison routine–which included three simple meals a day, a twice-daily cell inspection by Hartranft himself, and frequent physical examinations by an army physician.

Book, Bantam Dell, 2009Description
Book Description On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln?s birth and in conjunction with the Library of Congress 2009 Bicentennial Exhibition, In Lincoln?s Hand offers an unprecedented look at perhaps our greatest president through vivid images of his handwritten letters, speeches, and even childhood notebooks–many never before made available to the public.
