NEWS !
Color of Lincoln is
reviewed in the Spring, 2009 issue of the "Lincoln
Forum Bulletin"
"Color
of Lincoln" by
Bryan Eaton and Lee Rizio with photographs by Bryan
Eaton.. does for 19th century photographs what TedTurner
-sponsored colorization did for classic movies :
adds vivid tinting to the fuzzy black- and- white
prints of Lincoln's own era. What emerges is a startlingly
new portrayal of the 16th president, bound to stir
emotion and even controversy . Historian James Cornelius
called the result "an excellent example of
an 'a-ha!' moment of invention .. why didn't someone
think of this sooner?"

"
I just purchased my second copy of the "Color of Lincoln"
... Congratulations on this magnificent book and best wishes
for much success. I am the great granddaughter of Lincoln's
photographer, Samuel G. Alschuler and I want to thank you
so much for including the photographs of Lincoln taken by
Alschuler in the book. My children and grandchildren were
so excited to see the photos in your beautiful book."
"I
love the color photos and the path you have taken to tell
the story of the person - Abraham Lincoln. I have found your
content on his personal life thoughtful and seemingly well
supported by first hand material…bravo for that.

The
“Color of Lincoln” offers an extraordinary view
of this historic American. Bryan Eaton has done an amazing
job of bringing Abraham Lincoln to life with his painstakingly
detailed rendition of the original Lincoln photographs. Adding
color to the Lincoln portraits serves to “complete”
the man by affording that touch of life that makes him real
and so much more than just a dusty archival photograph. This
is a beautiful work of art. Thank you for bringing Lincoln
back to life for us to understand in a new and exciting way!"

"Color
of Lincoln is a most welcome addition to my Lincoln library.
It was obviously a labor of love. I wish I had thought of
it, but if I had, I wouldn’t have known how to do to
it. I am most struck by the enhancement of detail that the
addition of color allows, both in up close portraiture, as
well as the greatly enlarged portions of panoramic shots.
This deserves to take its place alongside the classic Lincoln
photo books compiled over the past 100 years. "

just received the book yesterday, and it is beautiful! "-
