I've categorized this as fiction. It relies on typescripts—TYPESCRIPTS—of supposed historical documents that nobody has ever seen. To wit: the "missing" Booth diary pages, the Potter Papers, and Lafayette Baker's coded manuscripts. Several researchers, Edward Steers Jr. preeminent among them, have debunked most of these, see his excellent reference The Lincoln Assassination Encyclopedia. Booth's diary pages were probably used as letters by Booth, and were likely already missing when discovered (not taken out later). And, besides, the typescripts of the supposed diary supposedly came down in a line of Stanton's family that never existed. Andrew and Earl Potter, supposed secret agents and authors of the missing documents behind the typed Potter Papers never existed. And Baker's coded documents, also missing, are fakes. All make chronological mistakes and several other errors.

Then, the conspiracy does not make sense. And is too large to have actually worked without being found out. And makes no sense.

And, finally, John W. Boyd, supposedly killed in John Wilkes Booth's place, was in his forties, graying, with different eyes, and 6′ 2″. There is no way he could've been mistaken for Booth.

And, another reason to call it fiction: it is written as if it is a novel. (It is basically a script for the more a novelization of the movie.) There are interior monologues and stilted dialogue. Poor, poor dialogue. The pictures are nice enough, getting it a star. But some of the stuff there really isn't addressed in the text. ( )
