Donald goes beyond biography, illuminating the gradual development of Lincoln's character, chronicling his tremendous capacity for evolution and growth, thus illustrating what made it possible for a man so inexperienced and so unprepared for the presidency to become a great moral leader. In the most troubled of times, here was a man who led the country out of slavery and preserved a shattered Union--in short, one of the greatest presidents this country has ever seen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Herbert Donald\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/05\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 720\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.18h x 6.19w x 1.32d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780684825359\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/17\/1996 pg. 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/08\/1996 pg. 101\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/30\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/14\/2008 pg. 34\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eDonald, David Herbert:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - David Herbert Donald is the author of \u003ci\u003eWe Are Lincoln Men\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLincoln\u003c\/i\u003e, which won the prestigious Lincoln Prize and was on the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller list for fourteen weeks, and \u003ci\u003eLincoln at Home\u003c\/i\u003e.
