Synopsis
The New York Times bestselling biography of LincolnâÈçs closest adviser and friend William Henry Seward was one of the most important Americans of the nineteenth century. Progressive governor of New York, outspoken United States senator, and LincolnâÈçs secretary of state during the Civil War, Seward not only managed foreign affairs but had a substantial role in military, political, and personnel matters. Drawing on hundreds of sources, Walter Stahr sheds new light on this complex and central figure, as well as on pivotal events of the Civil War and its aftermath.
