There have been few assassinations as notorious or consequential as Abraham Lincoln's.
But for years before he killed the President, Lincoln’s assassin was a household name across North America. In fact, stage actor John Wilkes Booth was so famous that many people had images of him hung on the walls of their homes.
So how does an American celebrity kill an American President in front of hundreds of witnesses and escape the scene, kicking off a wild and farcical manhunt?
This is the story of how the hunter became the hunted.
