It was generally conceded that the horse furnished Lincoln was not well designed for the duty assigned. Due to the President's height, most people who viewed the procession believed Lincoln's horse was either too small or that Lincoln's towering figure made the rest of the riders appear out of proportion to their mounts. Lincoln secured his horse from Captain Henry B. Blood, an assistant quartermaster of volunteers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
