And she was hated because she had brothers fighting for the Rebs.

The naff background music is too loud and totally spoilt the video.

Thanks for letting me know. I tried lowering the volume as much as I could thinking that it sounded good. Will lower it more going forward.

Biased and wrong information. The sources of used in this video obviously all lead to Jean Baker's biography of MTL in which most of her citations do not support her claims - so much so that it should be considered fiction.

Mental diagnosis was not yet developed fully, she had what I thought of as a fragile state of mind, never suited for Abraham Lincoln or politics.

According to the book, “The Lincolns, Portrait of a Marriage” by Daniel Epstein, Lincoln was sitting on the floor playing with his kids, and she hit him with a stick of apple wood. I think Abraham Lincoln was a saint, so to speak, in many ways. That book was quite revealing.

Thanks for watching and sharing. I agree. I do still feel bad for her though. The thought of being stuck in an insane asylum especially back then is mortifying.

I feel sorry for her too. She clearly had a then-undiagnosed mental condition. I believe one or more of her brothers were fighting on the side of the South, which couldn’t have helped her many anxieties.

That book is full of falsehoods. Look up the citations and trace them to the original source
