He was widely regarded as one of the top experts on this matter, and is noted for having discovered a letter by John Wilkes Booth, written on the morning of the murder, in which Booth attempted to justify his actions. He also argued that Samuel Mudd was guilty of helping Booth. His books include Come Retribution by William A. Tidwell, James O. Hall and David W. Gaddy; On the Way to Garrett's Barn John Wilkes Booth & David E. Herold in the Northern Neck of Virginia, April 22 26, 1865; and The Surratt Family and John Wilkes Booth.
