Jack is a struggling artist who is looking for a big break in his career, and the opportunity to sculpt a bust of one of the most iconic figures in American history seems like the perfect chance.As Jack begins his work on the bust, he becomes obsessed with capturing the essence of Lincoln's character in his sculpture. He spends countless hours studying photographs and reading books about Lincoln's life, trying to understand what made him such a revered leader.As he works on the bust, Jack also becomes involved in a love triangle with two women - one who is his childhood sweetheart and the other a wealthy socialite who is fascinated by his artistic talent. This adds an element of romance and drama to the story.Throughout the novel, Dwyer weaves in historical facts and anecdotes about Lincoln's life, making it an interesting read for history buffs.
