Lincoln won, Goodwin demonstrates, because of his extraordinary ability to put himself in the place of other men. It was this capacity that enabled Lincoln as president to bring his disgruntled opponents together and marshal their talents to the task of preserving the union and winning the war.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Library For The Blind and Print Disabled Large Type LT 973.7092 LINCOLN GO Checked In Add Copy to MyList
