Críticas
"This book puts Abraham Lincoln back on the map of serious American historical inquiry. It raises and answers the enduring questions of the Lincoln presidency that have gone begging for a whole generation. Original, accurate, and fair-minded, it will inform any reader, no matter how expert in Lincolniana." Mark E. Neely, Jr., author of The Last Best Hope of Earth: Abraham Lincoln and the Promise of America"In this superb history of Lincoln s presidency, Paludan has skillfully blended an engrossing narrative, incisive analysis, and inspiring commentary. A powerful and thought-provoking book that will engage scholars and general readers alike." Drew R. McCoy, author of The Last of the Fathers: James Madison and the Republican Legacy "The most comprehensive modern treatment of that crucial period in American history. An indispensable book for any serious student of the American Civil War." David Herbert Donald, author of Lincoln Reconsidered "A fresh account of a time when the American presidency briefly became an instrument for realizing the highest promise of the republic." Andrew Delbanco, editor of The Portable Abraham Lincoln "The reader will come away with a new appreciation and deeper understanding of Lincoln s leadership during America's greatest crisis." James M. McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom "Readers wanting a relatively brief, clearly written, carefully argued review of Lincoln s presidency will not find a better source than this volume." Times Literary Supplement"A judicious, erudite study." New York Review of Books "A superb analysis. Paludan s deft narrative covers the full sweep of Northern wartime politics. His characterizations are succinct and oftentimes unforgettable. This extremely well-written volume is a tribute not to a demigod but to a man." Richmond Times-Dispatch
Reseña del editor
Abraham Lincoln's life and work have inspired more books than any other historical figure except Jesus and Shakespeare and attracted some of America's most renowned writers. But few know him as well as Phillip Paludan, one of the nation's foremost authorities on Lincoln and the Civil War. Paludan offers us Lincoln in whole - a complex, even contradictory personality who found greatness without seeking it and who felt deeply troubled about what he perceived as the nation's intertwined triumph and tragedy. Filled with fresh insights and new interpretations, this book presents a genuinely new and compelling portrait of a president and nation at war. It is essential reading for anyone interested in Lincoln, the presidency, and the Civil War.
