W. A. Evans: "Mrs. Abraham Lincoln"

[Eva Elisabeth]

I'm not good at writing reviews, so I just recommend this book, also for the timelines, and quote from the cover: "First published in 1932, this was the first thoroughly researched biography of Mary Lincoln ever
written...". Surprisingly as for the publication date, the book is excellently footnoted - and the author has contacted several contemporaries of the Lincolns to get his information!

There's the following b/w picture in it the description of which reads: "Mary Todd when about twenty years old. From a portrait painted from a daguerreotype, by Katherine Helm." Does anyone know what daguerreotype that could be? And/or where to find in color? (As it is a painting I assume it is coloured.)
   
When searching for the latter I came across this site I'd like to share, also because there's a nice anecdote about a smart Tad, a rebel Katherine, and a Lincoln quick at repartee I've never read before.
