"Moving prose and dramatic night scenes show them as part of a grieving yet grateful nation, paying homage to a fallen hero." --San Francisco Chronicle
"This quiet, lovely book sensitively communicates a sense of the magnitude of loss felt by so many." --Kirkus Reviews
"A moving portrait of a cultural moment, before the age of 24/7 electronic media, when tribute was paid to the slain president by those who turned out to see the train pass. Text and pictures convey the watchers' sense of solemnity." --Chicago Tribune
When Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865, the country grieved for the courageous president who had guided them through the Civil War. Over the course of thirteen somber days, people paid homage as Lincoln's funeral train made its way from Washington, D.C., to Springfield, Illinois. In moving prose and stunning paintings, a young boy experiences the deep feelings evoked by the assassination and death of a major historical figure, during a time of great change in the country.
