  • Fort Lauderdale, FL (1888PressRelease) October 18, 2023 - A new website has been released that enables readers, researchers and history buffs a quick and easy reference about Abraham Lincoln.

    TheLincolnAssassination.com provides illustrations, photos and graphics that describe the life of Lincoln from his boyhood to his death at Ford’s Theatre on April 14, 1865.

    The website delineates the assassination by John Wilkes Booth and the eight conspirators, and President Andrew Johnson’s pardon of three of the convicted prisoners.

    The site summarizes Lincoln’s eldest son’s coincidental presence for two subsequent presidential assassinations — those of Presidents James Garfield and William McKinley. Robert Todd Lincoln was nearby when both were shot.

    Many quotes and remarks by Lincoln are highlighted in the website. The text shows Lincoln’s wisdom, compassion and sense of equanimity that he exhibited throughout his career.

    According to TheLincolnAssassination.com author Rick Phillips, Abraham Lincoln was an entertaining storyteller, a clever humorist, and a man of great conviction.

    “Lincoln was a man of great belief,” says Phillips. “He described his own personal religion as ‘when I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad. That’s my religion.’”

    Phillips adds that Lincoln also was quoted, “Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right.”

    The website also highlights interesting trivia such as: Lincoln was the tallest president at 6’4”; he had the biggest shoe size at 14; he was the first president to wear a beard; he’s the only president to hold a patent; and that Lincoln had a premonition of his assassination in a dream just a week before he went to Ford’s Theatre.

    Lincoln was a lover of animals and had a motley assortment of critters in his household, including rabbits, horses, goats, turkeys, cats and a mutt named Fido.

    When asked why it was relevant today to discuss the life and times of Abraham Lincoln as much as two centuries ago, Phillips had a resolute answer.

    “Lincoln was a man of great moral character. He guided the United States through its most contemptuous times with firmness, fairness, and great leadership while suffering the heavy burden and responsibility of America’s most deadly war. He saved the union for future generations of Americans, and we all owe Lincoln a debt of gratitude. This website helps us all to pay homage to his memory.”

    Phillips is also the author of the new novel, “Cucamonga Pete - the Life of a Caddy Shack King” now available at most bookstores worldwide across the internet. The book also can be purchased on www.CucamongaPete.com
