Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Poor. 1st Edition. Here is the Lincoln who, in loneliness and doubt, bore the whole burden of liquidating an archaic command system riddled with personal and political influ-ence, and of forging a modern one superior to the high command of any other country at that time. This is not a military history of the Civil War, but the story of the top direction of the war by the Presi-dent. We see the developing picture of Lincoln as a war director-how he sometimes fumbled and erred, but how he steadily increased in stature until he stood above all his generals. Many figures of the Civil War come to life in incisive sketches. Here we see the generals whom Lincoln appointed and tried to use, and discarded when they failed: McClellan, Pope, Burnside, Hooker, Buell, Rosecrans, Fremont, Mc-Clernand, and others. The book culminates with the appearance of Grant, the general whom Lincoln trusted above all the rest, and the one to whom he confided many of the great powers he had previously withheld. The outer dust jacket is in poor condition, with significant tearing and staining. The actual book itself is in good condition, with minor wear and weathering.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. An original and deeply insightful biography of Abraham Lincoln, already awarded the prestigious Lincoln Prize. As a defender of national unity, a leader in war, and the emancipator of slaves, Abraham Lincoln lays ample claim to being the greatest of our presidents. But the story of his rise to greatness is as complex as it is compelling. In this superb biography, the highly regarded Oxford University historian Richard Carwardine examines Lincoln both in his dramatic political journey and in his nation-shaping White House years. Through his groundbreaking research, Carwardine probes the sources of Lincoln's moral and political philosophy. We see how, while pursuing office, Lincoln drew strength from public opinion and the machinery of his party. We see him, as a wartime president, recognizing the limits as well as the possibilities of power, and the necessity of looking for support beyond his own administration. We see how he turned to the churches, to their humanitarian agencies, and to the volunteer Union Army for allies in his struggle to end slavery. In illuminating the political talents that went hand in hand with large and serious moral purpose, Carwardine gives us a fresh, important portrait of the incomparable Abraham Lincoln. This book is in near fine condition. The dust cover features minor plastic deformation but no scratches or dents. The hardcover and pages are as new, but the binding does not look like it was manufactured to the highest standards. Though it isn't coming apart, it was just glued to a flexible layer of cardboard inside the cover.…
