This unforgettable portrait of Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War effortlesslymixes humor with Shakespearean-like tragedy to create an achingly humanportrait of the sixteenth president. Charyn conducts an orchestra of historicalfigures and fictional extras centered around a profoundly moral but troubled commanderin chief whose relationship with his Ophelia-like wife and his sons—Robert,Willie, and Tad—is explored with penetrating psychological insight and the utmostcompassion. Seized by melancholy and imbued with an unfaltering sense of humanworth, Charyn’s President Lincoln comes to vibrant, three-dimensional life in a hauntingportrait we have rarely seen in historical fiction.
