** HE WAS JUST SPINNING AND SPINNING AND SPINNING! He thought his head would explode! The pain was almost unbearable! He had a sensation that he was traveling, moving. . . going somewhere! *********WHEN NO ONE ELSE would take the job, Doctor Simon English, (a Black historian and noted scholar) agrees to take part in an unusual and DANGEROUS experiment: to go back into April 1865 to prevent the assassination of president Abraham Lincoln!

He was just an ordinary guy. . . A giant glass cylinder. A willing subject. And a secret agency that uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things!! WHEN no one else would take the job, Doctor Simon English, (a Black historian and scholar) agrees to take part in an unusual AND DANGEROUS experiment: to go back into April 1865 to prevent the assassination of president Abraham Lincoln!
