However, his sons knew him differently. In a captivating exploration of history, biography, and family culture, presidential historian Alan Manning invites readers to peer into the private life of Lincoln. Rather than seeing the thoughtful and burdened president delivering the Gettysburg Address to a war-torn nation, Manning presents a different image: a man quietly reading bedtime stories to his sleepy-eyed sons. He depicts Lincoln as a man grappling with his own grown sons' desire to join the army and embark on war, a perspective often overlooked by previous biographers. This book traces Lincoln's journey from his flourishing law practice in Springfield to the turbulent war years in the White House. It highlights the same challenges that modern fathers face: balancing a successful career with paternal responsibilities. By delving into this largely ignored aspect of Lincoln's life, Manning helps to complete the portrait of one of the most popular, significant, and complex figures in American history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 340g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 144 x 222 x 25 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781493038961\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alan Manning","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44102297551098,"sku":"9781493038961","price":11.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/8ce2d869eb6ceebea71f75e490876a95.jpg?v=1624927671","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/father-lincoln-the-untold-story-of-abraham-lincoln-and-his-boys-robert-eddy-willie-and-tad","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
