About the episode

On April 14, 1865, Abraham Lincoln was shot while watching a play at Ford's Theater in Washington, D.C. But what happened afterward? And how did Lincoln's Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton, play a crucial role? Dr. Lynn Price Robbins and Isaac Loftus welcome Steven Walters to discuss his popular podcast 1865 and post-Civil War America.
