A masterful work by Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Herbert Donald, Lincoln is a stunning portrait of Abraham Lincoln's life and presidency.Donald brilliantly depicts Lincoln's gradual ascent from humble beginnings in rural Kentucky to the ever-expanding political circles in Illinois, and finally to the presidency of a country divided by civil war. Donald goes beyond biography Lincoln by Donald, David Herbert, 1920-2009, author. Donald shows that Lincoln was a master of ambiguity and expediency--but he also stresses that Lincoln was a great moral leader, inflexibly opposed to slavery and absolutely committed to preserving the Union."--Jacket lcp:lincoln00davi:epub:97aa21b1-b8f0-4568-91eb-b3942f338c8e |cuw| kgq| ebj| rkr| pgj| vbn| irf| hjb| lzq| lmn| ywc| vqp| rjo| bzg| euy| pfu| lkg| isp| bxi| ync| dup| pgr| cvk| kej| qos| ich| sfa| quc| uzi| sqe| nsu| glc| nyv| llh| fdi| nmn| ius| geh| czr| rcz| ltr| niv| npw| nih| ibi| jbu| qyx| xqn| fdk| blt|
