Tried By War
In Tried by War, Pulitzer Prize-—winning Civil War historian James M. McPherson provides a rare, fresh take on one of the most written about yet enigmatic figures in American history, offering a revelatory (and timely) portrait of leadership during the greatest crisis ournation has ever endured. With no previous military experience before entering the White House, Lincoln assumed the powers we associate with the role of commander in chief and through his strategic insight and will to fight changed the Course of the war and saved the Union. Suspenseful and inspiring, this is the story of how Lincoln overcame feckless generals, fickle public opinion, and his own paralyzing fears to become one of the greatest leaders the world has ever seen.
