Did you live in the Civil War?

Did you live a past life during the Civil War?

James L. Swanson presents an account of the conspiratorial events leading up to the 1865 assassination of American President Abraham Lincoln. The tale is told through the eyes of the principle conspiracy member and assassin John Wilkes Booth. An assassination of Lincoln and other members of the Federal government would’ve aided the Confederate cause. At least that’s what the assassin and his fellow conspirators believed. One assassin pulled the trigger but other conspirators faced trial for their part in the Lincoln assassination conspiracy.

In related conspiracy literature, it’s interesting to suppose what our world would be like today if the assassination of Lincoln had affected the confederate cause, as the assassination conspirators believed. In his online short story, Meet Your Messenger, Author Russell Twyce explores a fiction world where the Rebel South won the American Civil war.  Russell’s novel Shiva’s Messenger also features a presidential assassination conspiracy in supposing that the grassy knoll assassin has raised an assassin son.
