Here is Lincoln the substantially wealthy, self made man, who was fascinated by madness and obsessed with death. He cracked jokes, but he also wrote poetry. Here is Lincoln the devoted family man, who had to bear uncommon losses and disappointments. Here is Lincoln the startlingly shrewd politician, who knew when to capitulate to his foes and when to stand firm.
