Why take this tour?

 Why did America’s most popular actor kill the president? And how did he do it? 

On this self-guided GPS audio tour, we stroll from the White House to Ford’s Theatre and many points in between over 90 minutes examining many of the sites where John Wilkes Booth stalked President Abraham Lincoln before killing him at the end of the Civil War. A madman exacting revenge for his beloved South or maybe more. Moderator Rick Snider is a distant relative of John Wilkes Booth and co-conspirator Mary Surratt.
