From “Lincoln 365,” by Arnold Kunst:

November 29

The foreign press was scathing of the new administration. The London Morning Chronicle, at the end of 1861, wrote: 'Abraham Lincoln, whose accession to power was generally welcomed on this side of the Atlantic, has proved himself a feeble, confused and small-minded mediocrity.'

‘The very ink with which history is written is merely fluid prejudice.’
