Description
|
|
|
|
Depicting the Great Emancipator's path from obscurity to immortality, artist Charles Turzak produced a remarkable book in 1933 that commemorated Lincoln's life in 36 woodcuts. These wordless images—of Lincoln as a boy, as a young man reading, wrestling Jack Armstrong, loving and then mourning Ann Rutledge, debating Stephen Douglas, and winning the White House—illuminated aspects of Lincoln's story that were familiar to most Americans. The present volume, captioned and edited by Bob Blaisdell, explains Turzak's brilliant work, and also provides another essential view of Lincoln through some of his writings and correspondence.
