520    From his earliest days, Lincoln spoke to the public 
       directly through the press. When war broke out and the 
       nation was tearing itself apart, Lincoln authorized the 
       most widespread censorship in the nation's history, 
       closing down papers that were "disloyal" and even jailing 
       or exiling editors who opposed enlistment or sympathized 
       with secession. The telegraph, the new invention that made
       instant reporting possible, was moved to the office of 
       Secretary of War Stanton to deny it to unfriendly newsmen.
       Holzer shows us politicized newspaper editors battling for
       power, and a masterly president using the press to speak 
       directly to the people and shape the nation.
