The many sides of Abraham Lincoln--war leader, humorist, commander
in chief, politician, and emancipator--are vividly depicted in this
concise and fresh look at his presidential years. Pivotal events,
decisions, and issues in Lincoln's private and public life are
scrutinized and explained clearly by noted historian James A.
Rawley. During an innovative yet bloody era marked by mass
communication, unheard-of national recognition and media attention,
and the increasingly destructive uses of technology to wage war,
Lincoln did all that he could to preserve the nation as a whole.
Principles underpinning Lincoln's actions and motivations as
administrator and war leader included an abiding spirit of
nationalism, which contrasted with the forces driving his immediate
predecessors, and the encompassing power conferred upon him as
commander in chief in wartime. Accessible and informative, "Abraham
Lincoln and a Nation Worth Fighting For" is an engaging and
valuable introduction to the career of one of our most memorable
presidents.
