Lincoln's Quest for Union

Historical analysis and psychological inquiry are combined in this insightful portrait of Abraham Lincoln. Through an examination of his childhood, courtship, marriage, and public career, an image emerges of a man often divided against himself-a description famously applied to Civil War-era America. Lincoln's troubled personal life, and the means by which he dealt with it, contributed to the lasting legacy of his presidency. An investigation into his important personal relations-with his parents, his wife and children, and with his law partners-shed light on the public triumphs of this great political figure. more
