About this month's title: "The author of The Splendid and the Vile brings to life the pivotal five months between the election of Abraham Lincoln and the start of the Civil War in this “riveting reexamination of a nation in tumult” -Los Angeles Times “A feast of historical insight and narrative verve . . .
