The primary message in these summaries:
As Lincoln's first inauguration neared, Southern secessionists were determined to prevent his assuming office by any means necessary - even committing treason. A diverse group of individuals came together and managed to thwart the assassination plot through collaboration, good fortune, and pretending to have Southern accents. This act then paved the way for the abolition of slavery, a pivotal political milestone in American history following the Declaration of Independence.

What to check out next: The First Conspiracy, written by Brad Meltzer and Josh Mensch
You have just discovered the imminent danger Abraham Lincoln faced of being killed prior to his inauguration. If the individuals planning the assassination had succeeded, the trajectory of America's history would have been vastly different and likely more unjust for a prolonged period.
Although Lincoln was the first president of the United States to be assassinated, he was not the first target of an assassination plot. This dubious distinction belongs to George Washington, the renowned Revolutionary War hero and America's initial president. In The First Conspiracy, authors Brad Meltzer and Josh Mensch delve into the scheme aimed at assassinating Washington before he took office as well. The failed conspirators against Washington included the governor of New York, the Mayor of New York City, as well as bodyguards, soldiers, and prostitutes.
