Lincoln

A fascinating exploration of a U.S. president whose greatest war took place within himself. Innovative, intimate and emotionally charged, Lincoln explores the inner conflicts that plagued and inspired the President who called himself "The loneliest man in the world." Academy Award-winning producer (When We Were Kings) Vikram Jayanti goes inside a life scarred by loss and a mind ravaged by tragedy to uncover a man whose grand achievements were fueled by his own personal turmoil. Using interviews with leading Lincoln biographers like Gore Vidal, Jan Morris, and Harold Holzer, as well as Andrew Solomon, National Book Award winning author of The Noonday Demon: An Atlas of Depression, Lincoln presents a profound and insightful meditation on a man few knew seen through the eyes of the President himself.
