The Lincoln Assassination: Crime & Punishment, Myth & Memory is a scholarly anthology edited by Craig L. Symonds, Harold Holzer, and Frank J. Williams, bringing together essays by established Lincoln and Civil War historians. Rather than retelling only the familiar sequence of John Wilkes Booth shooting Abraham Lincoln at Ford Theatre, the volume studies the wider consequences of the assassination in public life, law, political culture, and historical memory. Its subject is therefore both an event and a national response: grief, anger, punishment, debate, commemoration, and mythmaking after April 1865. The book belongs to Civil War history, presidential history, legal history, and memory studies, and it is designed for readers who want more than a narrative of the murder itself. Its purpose is to show how Lincoln death was interpreted by contemporaries, processed by institutions, and later transformed into enduring symbols that shaped American understanding of martyrdom, Union victory, and national trauma.
