The Private and Public Life of Abraham Lincoln by Orville J. Victor offers a detailed look at both the personal and political sides of one of America's most iconic presidents. Published in 1864, during Lincoln’s lifetime, it blends biography with commentary on his rise to prominence, his leadership during the Civil War, and his commitment to ending slavery. Victor's work reflects the contemporary views of Lincoln’s presidency, capturing the tensions and hopes of the nation as it grappled with war and transformation. The book delves into Lincoln's humble beginnings, tracing his early life on the frontier, his career as a lawyer, and his growing influence in politics. It also highlights his moral convictions, humor, and deep empathy, qualities that shaped his approach to governance. On the public side, Victor emphasizes Lincoln’s role in preserving the Union, his evolving stance on slavery, and the significance of the Emancipation Proclamation. Victor’s narrative offers both praise and critique, making it a nuanced portrayal rather than pure hagiography. As a contemporary account, it provides readers with a unique snapshot of how Lincoln was viewed during his presidency, bridging the gap between myth and reality. Narrated by Emmy Nominated actor Geoffrey Giuliano and The Scythe.
