5.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS AN IMPORTANT HISTORICAL STUDY LONG OVERDUE., October 12, 1999
By A Customer
Kudos to Jimerson for bringing to public attention Lincoln's passion for fine music. The songs on this recording are beautifully rendered and appear to have been carefully prepared with respect to original instrumentation. As a footnote to amazon.com, the correct title of the first song is "Barbara Allen."

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful, January 13, 2008
Douglas Jimerson sings an array of songs from the period, including emancipation spirituals, selections from favorite opera e.g., Faust) and patriotic songs. One of the booklets with a CD--Lincoln's Favorite Music--talked about how President Lincoln went to the camps around Washington DC many nights where the escaping slaves lived. Lincoln would often become choked up and cry while he sang there. The accounts say he was never "The President," but simply a man of compassion during those visit.
