Focusing on a pivotal moment in American history, the book delves into the critical four months between Lincoln's election and inauguration. It highlights Lincoln's firm stance against any compromise regarding slavery and the secession of slaveholding states, a decision that would shape his presidency. Enhanced by 16 pages of black-and-white photographs, the work offers a detailed exploration of the political landscape and challenges faced during this transformative period.
