Description

While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for preserving the United States and freeing millions of slaves, his valiant fight against the forces of the undead has long remained shrouded. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, becoming the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years. Grahame-Smith, who also gave us the original monster mashup Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, reveals how young Abe learned that his mother's death was the work of a vampire, and proclaimed, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose." Gifted with his extraordinary height, strength, and skill with an ax, Abe sets out on a path of vengeance that leads him all the way to the White House. "Not just the Lincoln biography we've all been waiting for. It's also the funniest, most action-packed and weirdly well-researched account of the Civil War you'll probably read in a long time. Grahame-Smith could be poised to become the Howard Zinn of vampire-related alterna-history."—Vanity Fair
