Experience the Civil War through Abe Lincoln's very human eyes, as he contends with generals who won't fight and politicians who scheme to usurp his power. His wife is driven to the edge of madness by the death of their son and her deteriroating health causes Lincoln great pain. But after a war more ferocious and bloody than anybody had imagined, Lincoln lives just long enough to see his vision realized before his life is tragically cut short by an assassin's bullet.
