The lush, cool hill overlooking the squalid capital promised the Lincolns an escape from the \"\"city of stink.\"\" Despite fears about Lincolns vulnerability in the secluded place, Lincoln spent a quarter of his presidency at the Soldiers Home. But until the National Trust for Historic Preservation began restoring the cottage, little had been done to explore this missing link in Lincolns life. Elizabeth Smith Brownstein fills in a critical gap. Using diaries, letters, and eyewitness accounts, she provides unusual perspectives on Lincolns relationships, traces the evolution of Lincolns image, examines the Lincoln marriage, and more. Lincolns Other White House is a vivid evocation of a turbulent era, and an intimate portrait of the still elusive president.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51928855740704,"sku":"NEW0471485853","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/lincolns-other-white-house-the-untold-story-of-the-man-and-his-presidency-0471485853","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
