The inner world of Abraham Lincoln

Overview: Abraham Lincoln's excruciating, yet highly productive, midlife crisis; his woeful marriage to a dishonest woman who often embarrassed and sometimes physically abused him; his intense estrangement from a shiftless father; his streak of cruelty; his explosive temper; and his aversion to women are among the topics covered by Michael Burlingame in The Inner World of Abraham Lincoln.

Burlingame uses a blend of Freudian and Jungian theory to interpret the psyche of the sixteenth president. Based primarily on long-neglected manuscript and newspaper sources--and especially on reminiscences of people who knew him--this psycho biography casts new light on Lincoln. Burlingame uses a blend of Freudian and Jungian theory to interpret the psyche of the 16th president.
