Title: The Rhetoric of Lincoln's Letters
Description: "Lincoln's letters have been cited in countless biographical and critical works yet have received little scholarly attention. This comprehensive study reveals his letters as fundamental to understanding his development as a writer. He wrote more than 5,000 of his own. He employed more sophisticated rhetorical strategies to deal with political opponents, imperious generals and critics of his policies"--Provided by publisher.
