RE: BW pictures colorized in book
Sorry, Anita... I disagree. We cannot see the same colours, (I'll use my tablet's suggested spelling rather than alter it),. Obviously we all see our own version of,say, blue but even so .... and there are many many variations of any colour .... presenting a colorised version as though "this" is what Lincoln would have seen is simply pretending. Who is to say which shade of blue or red is closest to the truth?
We know the black and white photo isn't an exact representation.... we are lucky to have it.
