Lincoln's life, leadership qualities and achievements have made him a figurehead of American values, ranked as one of the greatest US presidents. The author examines how the US was transformed - politically, economically, geographically and socially - during Lincoln's life, and how he adapted to these changes and gave them a new direction.
