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.
