Thanks for the link to Professor McPherson's interview. Glad he noted the following:

"Lincoln rarely if ever used profanity, and some of the dialogue calls for him to do that. I thought that was a bit jarring.

"The opening scene where he's basically out on the street talking to soldiers is probably pretty fictional.

"Although I'll tell you one thing that bothered me — I thought it was out of character when Lincoln slapped Robert."
