<p>In 1974, the historian Fawn Brodie predicted that a ""sensitive study of the Lincoln marriage will not always defy biographers."" Until now, it has. The only book-length treatment of the marriage was published in 1953, when scholars lacked today's resources, and were still struggling with deep-seated prejudices about Mary Todd and Abraham Lincoln.
