A Lincoln book that says something new is a rarity. Conversations
with Lincoln is just such a book. In it Charles M. Segal has
collected and presented more than one hundred interviews with
Lincoln as President-elect and President. As a revelation of the
intimate, human side of Abraham Lincoln, it will be a source of
endless fascination to every reader interested in the Civil War
era. This is a wide-ranging and engaging volume. The conversations
collected here (between 1860 and 1865) range from brief remarks to
extended discussions. Mr. Segal introduces each interview and the
personalities involved. The collection is arranged chronologically,
giving a rich picture of the Lincoln presidency. Charles M. Segal
was born in Montreal, attended college there, and served in the
Royal Canadian Air Force. He holds degrees from Skidmore College
and Union College. After World War II, he became a reporter and a
foreign correspondent for a number of papers in Canada and the
United States. After settling in the U.S., he began his serious
study of Lincoln and the Civil War. David Donald is Charles Warren
Professor of American History Emeritus at Harvard University
