Ward Hill Lamon (1828–1893) was an American author, lawyer, and personal friend to President Abraham Lincoln. Born in Winchester, Virginia, Lamon is best known for his intimate account of Lincoln's life in his seminal work, 'The Life of Abraham Lincoln, from His Birth to His Inauguration as President,' published posthumously in 1872. This book offers readers an in-depth look into Lincoln's early years, his rise through American politics, and his strife-filled presidency, culminating in the eve of his first inauguration. Lamon's writing style is characterized by its detailed narrative and personal reflections, drawn heavily from his close association with Lincoln. While not a professionally trained historian, Lamon's firsthand insights and anecdotes add a layer of authenticity and poignancy to his recounting of the life of one of America's most iconic figures. However, Lamon's work has been subject to scrutiny and accounted as partial and subjective, largely due to his personal involvement with the subjects he discusses. Despite this, 'The Life of Abraham Lincoln' is considered a valuable resource for both scholars and enthusiasts of Lincoln's legacy, providing a unique perspective compiled by someone within the President's innermost circle. Lamon's contributions as a biographer are recognized for their significant role in shaping the narrative of Lincoln's personal and political life during one of the United States' most tumultuous periods.
