This review is from: The Lincoln Hunters (Hardcover)
This is a neat sci fi book written in the 50s. Probably influenced writers like Stephen King, and he even referenced it in his 11/22/63
4.0 out of 5 stars
An enjoyable time-travel adventure,

This review is from: The Lincoln Hunters (Mass Market Paperback)
The power of time travel to open up the past provides the starting point of Wilson Tucker's novel. In the 26th century, a business specializing in time travel is hired to record a speech made by Abraham Lincoln in 1856. What seems like an ordinary assignment, though, is soon complicated by an error that sends the team leader, Benjamin Steward, to the morning after speech. Now risking a fatal paradox that may lead to his death, he travels back with his team to the day of the speech itself, where he faces complications that threaten to undermine his mission and may lead even to his death.
Tucker's novel is a short and engaging venture about the perils and complications of time travel. His premise of a history only half-remembered is an entertaining one and his characters, while somewhat dated, are interesting and sympathetic. While not as good as his later time-travel novel, The Year of the Quiet Sun, Wilson provides one of the better efforts at a time travel novel and an enjoyable adventure that entertains the reader.
