Book Synopsis Abraham and Mary Lincoln by : Kenneth J. Winkle
Download or read book Abraham and Mary Lincoln written by Kenneth J. Winkle and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2011-09-30 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades Abraham and Mary Lincoln’s marriage has been characterized as discordant and tumultuous. In Abraham and Mary Lincoln, author Kenneth J. Winkle goes beyond the common image of the couple, illustrating that although the waters of the Lincoln household were far from calm, the Lincolns were above all a house united. Calling upon their own words and the reminiscences of family members and acquaintances, Winkle traces the Lincolns from their starkly contrasting childhoods, through their courtship and rise to power, to their years in the White House during the Civil War, ultimately revealing a dynamic love story set against the backdrop of the greatest peril the nation has ever seen. When the awkward but ambitious Lincoln landed Mary Todd, people were surprised by their seeming incompatibility. Lincoln, lacking in formal education and social graces, came from the world of hardscrabble farmers on the American frontier. Mary, by contrast, received years of schooling and came from an established, wealthy, slave-owning family. Yet despite the social gulf between them, these two formidable personalities forged a bond that proved unshakable during the years to come. Mary provided Lincoln with the perfect partner in ambition—one with connections, political instincts, and polish. For Mary, Lincoln was her “diamond in the rough,” a man whose ungainly appearance and background belied a political acumen to match her own. While each played their role in the marriage perfectly— Lincoln doggedly pursuing success and Mary hosting lavish political soirées—their partnership was not without contention. Mary—once described as “the wildcat of her age”—frequently expressed frustration with the limitations placed on her by Victorian social strictures, exhibiting behavior that sometimes led to public friction between the couple. Abraham’s work would at times keep him away from home for weeks, leaving Mary alone in Springfield. The true test of the Lincolns’ dedication to each other began in the White House, as personal tragedy struck their family and civil war erupted on American soil. The couple faced controversy and heartbreak as the death of their young son left Mary grief-stricken and dependent upon séances and spiritualists; as charges of disloyalty hounded the couple regarding Mary’s young sister, a Confederate widow; and as public demands grew strenuous that their son Robert join the war. The loss of all privacy and the constant threat of kidnapping and assassination took its toll on the entire family. Yet until a fateful night in the Ford Theatre in 1865, Abraham and Mary Lincoln stood firmly together—he as commander-in-chief during America’s gravest military crisis, and she as First Lady of a divided country that needed the White House to emerge as a respected symbol of national unity and power. Despite the challenges they faced, the Lincolns’ life together fully embodied the maxim engraved on their wedding bands: love is eternal. Abraham and Mary Lincoln is a testament to the power of a stormy union that held steady through the roughest of seas.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Todd Lincoln: Mary Todd Lincoln Mary Todd's cousin, Elizabeth Humphreys, a member of the Todd house hold, has left vivid reminiscences of Dr. Ward and Mary's. Early school days: His requirements and rules were very strict and woe to her who did not conform to the letter. Mary accepted the conditions cheerfully, even eagerly, -and' 'never came under his censure. Mr. Ward required his pupils to recite some of their lessons before breakfast. On bright summer mornings this was no hardship, and Mary skipped blithely to her recitations, but she never murmured when conditions were not so pleasant. When she had to get up out of her warm bed and dress by. Candlelight, she smiled and trudged sturdily through snow and sleet. Mary was far in advance over girls of her age in education. She had a retentive memory and 'a mind that enabled her to grasp and thoroughly understand the lessons she was required to learn. It was a hard task but long before I 'was through mine she had finished hers and was plying her knitting needles. We were required to knit ten rounds of socks every evening.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Todd Lincoln: Pictures While First Lady; Excerpts From Newspapers and Other Sources After the assassination the printmakers caught on quickly. They invented the family portraits which Lincoln had never provided in life. Starting with the photograph of Lincoln and Tad, they added other family members from other individual portraits. When they did not know what a family member looked like, they sometimes turned his head away from the viewer and dressed him as a typical little boy from some English Victorian print. The urge to have America's Presidents domesticated proved to be strong in Victorian America, and an abun dance of family prints appeared just after Lincoln's death many of them crude, some grotesque, and all the products of printmakers' imaginations. The popularity of these pictures could not be ignored nor could their unstated political message: could this good family man in his Victorian parlor really be a threat to American liberties? President Ulysses S. Grant would calm any anxieties that he might prove to be a dangerous man on horseback by appearing in numerous family portraits.
