| Publisher Description: Author Wade Hall has taken Abraham Lincoln's actual words from speeches, articles, and letters and assembled them in the form of answers to questions posed in an imagined interview with a fictional young journalist recently returned from the war front. The result is a fresh look at the mind and philosophy of our sixteenth president and the issues he was grappling with as the war came to a close, just a few days before he was assassinated. |
