"You have provided a novel and fascinating perspective on the Lincoln assassination as well as providing a good read that will appeal to adult as well as young readers."
James McPherson
Pulitzer Prize-Winning author of Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era
"Meticulously researched history and exquisite prose...The Hanging Boy is one of the most powerful Civil War novels I have ever read, offering a profound meditation on what it means to live a human life, inescapably burdened by what we have done and what we have failed to do."
Amy Alznauer
Author of New York Times Best Book of 2020, The Strange Birds of Flannery O'Connor
"Ultimately, The Hanging Boy succeeds because it understands that historical fiction is rarely about changing the past; it is about changing the reader’s relationship to it. "
