About This Item
Athens, GA: Univ of Georgia Press, 1989. First Edition, First Printing . Soft cover. Near Fine/None as Issued. BRAND NEW Copy. A journalistic biography of the life & times of Abraham Lincoln drawn from contemporary newspaper/magazine coverage of the Union, the Confederacy, and Europe. Journalistically speaking, it was an era of free-swinging 'reporting' and marked by extreme partisanship. The emerging portrait of the 16th President is accordingly highly complex & affords considerable insight into concerns & perspectives of the era. This volume is part of the trilogy "The Journalist's Lincoln", edited by Herbert Mitgang; the complementary books are: Washington, D.C., in Lincoln's Time by Noah Brooks, and, Spectator of America by Edward Dicey. 519 pgs in 10 chapters: 1, The Young Lincoln (1832-Aug 1846); 2, Congressman Lincoln (1846-1854); 3, The Great Debater (1854-1858); 4, A National Man (1858-1860); 5, Lincoln for President (1860-1861); 6, President at War (1861-1862); 7, The Emancipator (1862-1863); 8, Commander in Chief (1863-1864); 9, The Second Term (1864-1865); and 10, As They Saw Him (April 1865-May, 1865).
