He also shows how Lincoln's\u003cbr\u003e         uncanny leadership helped him to end slavery and still keep the divided\u003cbr\u003e         North sufficiently united to win the Civil War. By focusing on a variety\u003cbr\u003e         of roles and settings, Hanchett invites readers to get to know Lincoln\u003cbr\u003e         as a president, as well as a lover, husband, father, and friend.\u003cbr\u003e       \"Excellent!
