Honor's Voice: The Transformation of Abraham Lincoln

by Douglas L. Wilson
Publisher: Knopf (1998-01-27)
ISBN: 067940788X
Binding/Media: Hardcover
Edition: 1st
Condition: Collectible: Very Good
Comments: 1998. Stated First Edition. Hardcover. 383pp. VG+/VG+. Wilsons skillful analysis of the testimonies and writings of Lincolns contemporaries reveals the individual behind the legends. We see Lincoln as a boy: not the dutiful son studying by firelight, but the stubborn rebel determined to make something of himself. We see him as a young man: not the ascendant statesman, but the canny local politician who was renowned for his talents in wrestling and storytelling (as well as for his extensive store of off-color jokes). Wilson also reconstructs Lincoln's frequently anguished personal life: his religious skepticism, recurrent bouts of depression, and difficult relationships with women - from Ann Rutledge to Mary Owens to Mary Todd. Meticulously researched and well written, this is a fascinating book that makes us reexamine our ideas about one of the icons of American history. Black paper over purple boards. Some minor rubbing and edgewear to DJ. No rips or tears. No price on DJ. Text is nice and clean with no writing or highlighting. DJ covered in Brodart Mylar.
Our Price: $10.00
