My parents used to have an lp record with songs from the Civil War. I don’t remember much about the songs but there were pics of Lincoln, before and after. It always struck me how much difference there was. He aged so much and looked so sad at the end.

It wasn’t the Civil War that aged Abe - it was the constant insane yammering of Helen Thomas questioning his military tactics.

How come people are always so bandwidth-stingy? It wouldn’t have hurt them to include a link to a high-res version.
