Illustrated with a sections of color photographic plates, a section of black-and-white photographic plates, additional black-and-white photographs interspersed throughout the volume, and photographic front and rear endpapers. "Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer and #1 New York Times bestsellng author Jon Meacham chronicles the life of Abraham Lincoln, charting how - and why- he confronted secession, threats to democracy, and the tragedy of slavery to expand the possibilities of America. A president who governed a country at war with itself has much to teach us in a twenty-first-century moment of polarization and political crisis. Hated and hailed, excoriated and revered, Abraham Lincoln was at the pinnacle of American power when implacable secessionists gave no quarter in a clash of visions bound up with money, race, identity, and faith. In him we can see the possibilities of the presidency as well as its limitations. At once familiar and elusive, Lincoln tends to be seen as the greatest of American presidents - a remote icon - or as a politician driven more by calculation that by confiction. This illuminating new portrait gives us a very human Lincoln - an imperfect man whose moral antislavery commitment, essential to the story of justice in America, began as he grew up in an antislavery Baptist community; who insisted that slavery was a moral evil; and who sought, as he put it, to the right as God gave him to see the right. This book tells the story of Lincoln from his birth on the Kentucky frontier in 1809 to his leadership during the Civil War to his tragic assassination in 1865; his rise, his self-education, his loves, his bouts of depression, his political failures, his deepening faith, and his persistent conviction that slavery must end. In a nation shaped by the courage of the enslaved of the era and by the brave witness of Black Americans, Lincoln's story illustrates the ways and means of politics in a democracy,the roots and durability of racism, and the capacity of conscience to shape events." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Add to basketThis is the first edition of the exhibition catalogue of this stunning artist's work. Stiff card wrappers, issued without a jacket. There is a small dot on the base of the text block, which indicates a remainder copy, and there is a slight amount of sunning, so it is not 'perfect'. But if you can live with these slight faults this is otherwise a perfectly good copy of the first printing. Brilliant reproductions of this extraordinary contemporary realist.

Photograph
Vintage studio still photograph from the 1928 silent film, showing actors Norma Talmadge and Gilbert Roland in a decidedly passionate moment. Based on Denison Clift's 1926 play, in turn loosely based on Guy de Maupassant's 1880 story "Boule de Suif." A kind Austrian sex worker finds herself the subject of two men's competing romantic attentions on the eve of World War I. Considered by many to be the swan song of silent film star Talmadge, whose career would flag at the turn of the decade, with the arrival of sound pictures. Set in Austria. 8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, lightly and evenly toned, with a few small chips to the corners and edges.
