　　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,

prize-winning biography, acclaimed historian Richard Carwardine

examines Lincoln’s dramatic political journey, from his early years

in the Illinois legislature to his nation-shaping years in the

White House. Here, Carwardine combines a new perspective with a

compelling narrative to deliver a fresh look at one of the pillars

of American politics. He probes the sources of Lincoln’s moral and

political philosophy and uses his groundbreaking research to cut

through the myth and expose the man behind it.

　　“An illuminating and thoroughly intelligent assessment of

Lincoln the politician. . . . Carwardine provides a comprehensive

study of how an essentially good man could gain and wield power

even in scoundrel times.” –The New York Times Book

Review“With such an eye for subtlety, it is little wonder that

Carwardine's penetrating and stimulating book won the Lincoln

Prize.” –The Washington Post Book World “Stands up to any

comparison. . . . Carwardine wisely reinterprets many sources to

present his nuanced overview of the moral man who was Abraham

Lincoln.” –The Oregonian“This impressively organized,

compellingly argued and elegantly written book ranks with the very

finest works on Lincoln.” –St. Louis Post-Dispatch
