Exploding the
Official Myths of the Lincoln Assassination: Jerry Barrett is honored to welcome author James Perloff to
the show. Like many historical events, there is an official story and a back story. Many only
know the official story of the Lincoln assassination, but what is the truth? Why was Lincoln
denied protection at the Ford’s Theatre? Why did Ulysses Grant refuse to attend the event
with Lincoln? What about John Wilkes Booth? Was he informed beforehand there would be no
bodyguard?
