His permanent contribution was produced in little more than four years between his inauguration as president in 1861 and his tragic assassination in 1865.

(Subject: Political & Biographies - General) Famous as the President who abolished slavery, Lord Longford shows that Lincoln was equally concerned that the Union of the States should be preserved on a basis of mutual trust. In his mind union and true democracy were inseparable. During the civil war years he guided the North to victory holding together diverse and antagonistic factions from both civilian and military.
