The book also sheds new light on the influence that \"Bryant and his class\" (as Lincoln called the Radical Republican faction whose views Bryant articulated) wielded on the chief executive. How the cautious president and the preeminent editor of the Fourth Estate interacted--and how their ideological battle tilted gradually in Bryant's favor--is the centerpiece of this study. A work of meticulous scholarship and a model of compression, \u003ci\u003eLincoln and Bryant\u003c\/i\u003e is a watershed account of two Republicans fighting common enemies (and each other) during the Civil War era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGilbert H.
