Abraham Lincoln, Volume II by Jr. John T. Morse
"Abraham Lincoln, Volume II" by John T. Morse Jr. is a biography published in 1899. This second volume continues Morse's analytical portrait of Lincoln, focusing primarily on his presidential years. Unlike hagiographic accounts, Morse adopts a critical approach, examining the puzzling transformation between Lincoln the pre-1860 politician and Lincoln the wartime president. Reviews praised Morse's clear-minded perspective while noting some factual errors, making this an early example of scholarly Lincoln biography that
grapples with the president's complex duality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
