CONTENT: "Twenty-four-year-old James H. Trietsch, the only totally blind junior high school teacher in Texas, originally wrote this documented and historical biography of Lincoln as a thesis for his master's degree. In 'The Printer and the Prince' he has avoided the stereotyped Lincoln legends and painted a fresh and revealing portrait of the Great Emancipator through his own deeds and words as well as through the testimony of his contemporaries."
