Lincoln's Diplomacy

[LincolnToddFan]

A couple of weeks ago I finished up "Lincoln In The World: The Making Of a Statesman And The Dawn Of American Power" by Kevin Peraino. It's a relatively new release (October 2013) and it's an interesting look at an area of the Lincoln presidency that hasn't had that much written about it so far...his evolution as a foreign policy president, how he was viewed on the world stage both during the Civil War and the aftermath of his death, and also what America and the world might have looked forward to in Lincolnian foreign policy during his second term in office. It's interesting food for thought, for sure.

Don, I am putting your book on my MUST READ list, am saving it into my phone right now in fact-
