| Sumario: | More than any other American before or since, Abraham Lincoln had a way with words that has shaped our national idea of ourselves. Actively disliked and even vilified by many Americans for the vast majority of his career, this most studied, most storied, and most documented leader still stirs up controversy.

Bush's Lincoln in His Own Time provides some of the most significant contemporary. |
