Lincoln
of David Herbert Donald
Description
A masterful work by Pulitzer Prizeâwinning author David Herbert Donald, Lincoln is a stunning portrait of Abraham Lincolnâs life and presidency.Donald brilliantly depicts Lincolnâs gradual ascent from humble beginnings in rural Kentucky to the ever-expanding political circles in Illinois, and finally to the presidency of a country divided by civil war. Donald goes beyond biography, illuminating the gradual development of Lincolnâs character, chronicling his tremendous capacity for evolution and growth, thus illustrating what made it possible for a man so inexperienced and so unprepared for the presidency to become a great moral leader. In the most troubled of times, here was a man who led the country out of slavery and preserved a shattered Unionâin short, one of the greatest presidents this country has ever seen.
