This review is from: His Name Is Still Mudd: The Case Against Doctor Samuel Alexander Mudd (Paperback)

Wonderful book. Easy to follow, but very detailed. Great pictures. I have also read Blood On The Moon by Mr. Steers, and this work is first class also. Dr. Mudd was lucky Andrew Johnson released him. If he had not helped fellow prisoners and guards recover from Yellow fever, he would have deserved to remain in prison for life, and Dr. Mudd should get credit for that. The Mudd family should be glad he didn't get what he deserved - the gallows next to Mary Surratt!

A True account of Mudd's involvement. Though he cried foul, "The guilty dog barks the loudest".
