In Tried by War, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian James M. McPherson examines Abraham Lincoln's transformative role as commander in chief during the Civil War. This engaging study offers fresh insights into Lincoln's leadership and decision-making amid the nation's greatest crisis, highlighting how he navigated military challenges with little prior experience. As we commemorate Lincoln's bicentennial, McPherson’s work reveals the strategic vision that not only altered the course of the war but also reshaped the presidency itself.
