Best Answer

John Wilkes Booth's contribution to our society and history is easy to see. He gave us Lincoln! Not just any ordinary Lincoln, but Lincoln the martyr, the hero, the last great victim of the Civil War. Had Lincoln lived on, it is possible that he might have botched the Reconstruction and been remembered as a mediocre president. Thanks to Booth, Lincoln is idolized and eulogized and has, by far, one of the biggest personal statues in the country in Washington, DC.
