	Your Price : Rs 495.00

Long out of print and previously available only in rare bookshops, this intimate portrait is a valuable source of firsthand information about our sixteenth president. Gilmore, a Civil War-era journalist who wrote for the New York Tribune and the Atlantic Monthly, first interviewed Lincoln on the day after the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter in April 1861 and, over the course of the following years, would come to know the president well. More than just a firsthand account of Lincoln and his wartime leadership, the book also provides a glimpse into Civil War journalism and includes detailed accounts of Gilmore`s interactions with Horace Greeley and the story of his behind-enemy-lines interview of Confederate president Jefferson Davis.isbn-9780811702614
