In Abraham Lincoln: Beyond the American Icon, Reed continues his exploration of the ever-changing popular depiction of Lincoln-the idealized, the idolized, the iconic-the man and the myth-bringing our understanding up to the present day. More than 1,400 images, both famous and obscure, show Lincoln on coins, tokens, medals, stamps, stocks, bonds, and paper money-as well as paintings, sculptures, magazine covers, advertisements, cartoons, movie stills, and other diverse media. The narrative is engaging and thought-provoking. The illustrations-some legendary, some never before published-show us how America has seen its most honored president, how that vision has changed over the years, and what it says about our great nation.
