Some early praise for LOOKING FOR LINCOLN:

“The Kunhardt family has done it again with their latest tour de force—Looking for Lincoln. For five generations, the Kunhardts have been immersed in the study, writing, and collecting of Lincoln and Civil War era photographs and prints. While this book is chock full of iconography, it is not just a picture book—but a superlative narrative in text and illustrations that gives us a first-rate study of Abraham Lincoln in his bicentennial year.”



—Frank J. Williams

Founding Chair of The Lincoln Forum
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Rhode Island

“Lavishly illustrated with haunting, amusing and powerful images, this is
the ultimate hardcover keepsake for Lincoln’s bicentennial.”

—Terry Golway, Newark Star-Ledger

“An engrossing invitation to scrutinize its every page and image, the Kunhardts’ work is sure to be one of the most popular books in the bicentennial effusion of Lincoln volumes.”

—Gilbert Taylor, Booklist
