br. In una biografia rigorosa lo storico James McPherson racconta la gloriosa avventura umana di Abraham Lincoln, il sedicesimo presidente americano che con la sua guida seppe porre le basi per il formidabile sviluppo degli Stati Uniti contemporanei. Sullo sfondo di una Federazione ancora in costruzione, il libro ripercorre gli eventi fondamentali della vita di Lincoln: la sua affermazione professionale come avvocato, la risolutezza come comandante in capo durante la Guerra civile americana, l'abilità con cui riuscì a destreggiarsi tra separatisti e unionisti per mantenere l'equilibrio della nazione, la determinazione che lo portò a vincere la battaglia per l'abolizione della schiavitù. Nella narrazione di McPherson, episodi celebri come il Proclama di emancipazione si intrecciano con dettagli inediti sulla suggestiva personalità di Lincoln, per restituire vivida e reale la grandezza di un leader che ha contribuito a trasformare gli Stati Uniti nella potenza mondiale di oggi.

1864réf. 54101New York: printed by Thomas R. Dawley 13 Park Row and at all Democratic Newspaper Offices 1864. 8vo. 8 pp unpaginated. bound into mostly blank volume. Half-calf over marbled boards marbled endpapers raised bands on spine red black & gilt morocco spine labels minor scuffing wear to corners still VG copy from the library of noted New York City book collector Thomas Bell with his bookplate designed by Nancy Barnhart on front pastedown who was noted for his impressive library devoted mostly to Americana with many titles on Lincoln and sold at Anderson Galleries Auction in 1917. First edition of this scarce Democratic Party Copperhead influenced presidential campaign pamphlet perpetuating the complaints of mistreatment by Democratic candidate and former Civil War general George B. McClellan. This piece appears to have been published at the height of the Cold Harbor campaigns by the Union Army under command of Lieut. General Ulysses S. Grant which were suffering heavy casualties and significant blows to northern morale during the Civil War. The opening letter from President Lincoln denotes his complete confidence in Grant for the 1864 campaigns. In contrast McClellan has presented all of the attempts by Lincoln to encourage move troops and override orders from General as commander of the Union Army. In addition the Democratic ticket under McClellan wanted to negotiate with the Confederates immediately and place the agreement before the voters. Subsequent Documents included further charges against President Lincoln’s arbitrary arrests corruption and frauds Republican opinions about Lincoln and more. Dawley was self-styled as the Publisher to the Million and established himself at 13 and 15 Park Row as the “cheapest printer in the world” whose most successful Civil War publication was the best seller Incidents of American Camp Life.
