Description: "The night of April 2, 1865, is among the most eventful in American history. Much has been plagiarized or misconstrued of Jefferson Davis' flight from Richmond to Danville. This book examines material with a new account that comes closer to what Abraham Lincoln had in mind when he said, "History is not history unless it is the truth.""--
