Description:
Narrated from the multiple perspectives of Abraham Lincoln and those whose lives he touched, this highly ambitious, contemporary collection of 13 stories interweaves fact and fiction to probe the darker, more human side of the 16th president -- a leader and man plagued not only by the raging Civil War but also by his own personal grief over the death of his young son.
Expand description
Adam Braver brings to light the many sides of this complex man, imagining how Lincoln explored the meaning of loss with the father of a slain soldier; envisioning his assassination and autopsy through the eyes of John Wilkes Booth, Mary Todd Lincoln, and others; and demonstrating his effect on the nation's citizenry, showing how a good-hearted, young Union soldier is quickly turned into a killer in the name of the moral president.
Blending rich characterization, deep research, and a modern style, this luminous new work introduces a fresh talent with extraordinary storytelling power.
