The Lincoln funeral and the nearly 1,700-mile epic journey of the funeral train was the biggest single event to happen in the lives of American citizens at the time. Eyewitness accounts and historic images present this remarkable journey of President Abraham Lincoln's remains, from the nation's Capitol to his final resting place in Springfield, Illinois. Reed draws from reports, documents, and contemporary narratives to finally fully present the event. (Worldcat)
