Loving Mr. Lincoln--presented in Mary Lincolns "own words"chronicles her life, love, and daily struggles with Abraham in their 26 years together. In frank, haunting journal entries, Mary describes the pain she felt when Abraham left her at the altar, when her sons died, and when Abrahams political career seemed to be at an end. She also writes from her heart about the tragic years of slavery and the Civil War. She worries about her own shifting moods and Abrahams frequent bouts of depression, but she delights in joy of the deep and binding love evident in the Lincoln marriage.
