Description

1862 1ed American CIVIL WAR Commentary Abraham Lincoln 2v Adam Gurowski Diary

Adam Gurowski was a 19th-century Polish author who, after moving to America, held a prominent role in the United States State Department, serving as translator. While in office, Gurowski kept a detailed diary of his experiences and political understanding. Much of this work describes the life and character of Abraham Lincoln as well as the effects of the Civil War on America. According to Nevins, Gurowskis â€œDiary” is

â€œa gossipy journal by a European radical who was highly critical of just about everything he saw and heard.”
