Excerpt from The Magazine of History, With Notes and Queries, Vol. 19: Extra Numbers 73-76
Dr. Browning's paper is of particular interest as the only one upon its subject, and, from being published only in a medical journal, will be new to all our readers. It is worth remem bering at the present time that our President is himself the son of a physician, who has lived to see his son inaugurated.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This thought-provoking volume illuminates the Civil War era through the lens of the Lincoln administration's inner circle. The author reveals a striking pattern: seven key figures â" Judge David Davis, John Hay, Hannibal Hamlin, Solomon Foot, William H. Seward, Edwin M. Stanton, and Schuyler Colfax â" who held positions of immense power and influence were all sons of physicians. Analyzing this phenomenon, the author explores the psychological underpinnings of government and suggests that medical training and heritage instilled in these men a unique blend of intellect, empathy, and unwavering devotion to the common good. This compelling narrative challenges conventional wisdom and sheds new light on the critical events that shaped the nation during its darkest hour.
