Spanning Lincoln�s life�from his early career as a Springfield lawyer, to his presidential reign during one of America�s most troubled historical periods, to his assassination in 1865�these essays, developed from original C-SPAN interviews, provide a compelling, composite portrait of Lincoln, one that offers up new stories and fresh insights on a defining leader. Edited by C-SPAN�s Brian Lamb and Susan Swain, illustrated with Lamb�s photographs of Lincoln landmarks, and promoted throughout the year on C-SPAN, Abraham Lincoln is a wonderful compendium of information and deeply-informed analysis that deserves a prominent place on every bookshelf.
