520 |a "Lincoln's official secretaries John Hay and John Nicolay witnessed more history, and knew Lincoln better than anyone outside of the president's immediate family. They were the gatekeepers of his legacy. In this timely look into Lincoln's White House, and the aftermath of his death, noted historian and political advisor Joshua Zeitz presents a fresh perspective on the sixteenth U.S. president -- as seen through the eyes of his two closest aides and confidantes."--Descripción del editor.
