Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archeology at the Petersen House, Unearthing an Alternate History: A Cultural Resource Management Project Undertaken by the Regional Archeology Program, National Park Service, National Capital Region In the early morning hours of April 15, 1865 an event of national significance took place in an ordinary row house in Washington, D.C., allowing archeologists one hundred and twenty years later the opportunity to peer into a window on the past. That event was the passing away of Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of the United States of America. The row house belonged to William Petersen, a German immigrant tailor. A twist of fate, throwing together the famous with the unknown, the great with the small, created a story involving an ordinary person who should have been lost amongst the countless pages of history. Such are often the stories of archeology; this report will attempt to retell one of them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Prior to implementation of the Package 118 restoration program in Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, the park's archeological research staff conducted excavations around Park Buildings 5, 7, 16, and 16A. During the summer of 1991, a crew of four people excavated 11 units (typically 5 ft. by 5 ft.) in the backyards and under Park Building 16 where the flooring had been removed. This work gave the archaeologists the opportunity to examine firsthand and to re-evaluate the soil layers and some of the features described in previous reports. Also several additional features were discovered. This new report presents the findings of an interdisciplinary effort covering topics beyond the basic descriptions of soils and artifacts. It provides glimpses into a small piece of the town, crowded with buildings and busy with the everyday activities of families and small businesses such as a bakery/confectionery, saloons, a shoemaker's shop, and a dry goods store. ..."--Management Summary--page xiii.
