Industry Reviews
"I always thought a Lincoln biography was too formidable a task for me, but after my second Pulitzer, I thought, 'If there are enough people out there who have twice thought I'm a good biographer, I'll try it.'"
David Herbert Donald
"In most writing about Lincoln, the resonance is piped in from outside, the milieu from which he sprang, the social and political context in which he acted, his changing image, his enduring influence. In Donald's biography, the resonance emanates from Lincoln himself, who left a powerful impression on everyone who ever met him. Without novelizing, Donald re-creates what it must have been like to be in Lincoln's presence--and even in his head."
Newsweek - David Gates (10/16/1995)
