A historical novel of Abraham Lincoln --a dramatic web around the life of Abraham Lincoln which cannot fail to be an historic revelation. The book shows the real Lincoln in the life and death struggle with the forces he fought to save the nation --the radical fanatics of his own party, the Copperhead power which daily threatened his life, and the grim gray armies of Lee threatening the Capitol. Through this drama of blood and tears runs a fascinating love story, which culminates in one of the many attempts made to assassinate the President. In a note to the reader, the author states that "every word in relating to the issues of our national life has been drawn from authentic records in my possession. Nor have I at any point taken a liberty with an essential detail in historical scenes." Thomas Dixon earlier published The Clansman from which D.W. Griffith produced his film Birth of a Nation.
