Lincoln's Gettysburg Address: A Pictorial Interpretation Painted by James Daugherty

(3) 4-6 Daugherty powerfully illustrates Lincoln's momentous Gettysburg Address. This updated edition includes a new afterword by historian Gabor Boritt, which provides an overview of the days surrounding the 1863 speech. Daugherty's emotive paintings--discussed one by one in an appendix--include allusions to other profound American moments, such as then-recent WWII, grounding Lincoln's words within our nation's larger history.
