The Inner World of Abraham Lincoln cover

Published to a flurry of praise--and consternation--from Lincoln scholars, Burlingame's book takes a hard and unsentimental look at, among other things, Abraham Lincoln's excruciating yet fruitful midlife crisis, his marriage to a dishonest woman who often embarrassed and sometimes physically abused him, his estrangement from his father, his explosive temper, and his aversion to women.
 

"Readers will gain fresh insights into the personality of the greatest -- and saddest -- of American presidents." -- Richard N. Current, author of The Lincoln Nobody Knows
