I listen to audiobooks while I sew, quilt, knit, make greeting cards, make mini scrapbook journals, work in the kitchen and iron clothes.

    My Thoughts Be Bloody, a sweeping family saga, revives an extraordinary figure whose name has been missing, until now, from the story of President Lincoln's death. Edwin Booth, John Wilkes's older brother by four years, was in his day the biggest star of the American stage. Without an account of Edwin Booth, author Nora Titone argues, the real story of Lincoln's assassin has never been told.

    Tad Davis says: "Wonderful!"

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    I would recommend this book to a friend. It is informative, interesting, well written, well narrated.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of My Thoughts Be Bloody?

    I am still listening, but the most memorable moments so far are the facts about the Booth family and the society in which they lived.


    What about John B. Lloyd’s performance did you like?

    I liked John B. Lloyd's voice, pacing, tone and inflection. He is one of my favorite audio book narrators.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    What is most moving so far, is how the events in a person's life can change the world.


    Any additional comments?

    I am really enjoying this book. I find I learn about history much better by listening to audio books about certain time periods, than I ever did in the classroom. I enjoy learning about the mid and late 1800's, especially about the Civil War, by listening to audio books.
