Abstract

ABRAHAM LINCOLN, by James M. McPherson. (Oxford University, $12.95.) In an introductory biography of just 79 pages, McPherson, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of ''Battle Cry of Freedom,'' delivers a speedy narrative but no superficial treatment. A. LINCOLN: A Biography, by Ronald C. White Jr. (Random House, $35.) White's major one-volume study covers all the bases while adding newly discovered papers and exploring the religious aspects.
