The album contains nearly 200 original photographs (numbered sequentially at the top), most of which were autographed by their subjects.

For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy. -

Thankfully, there were a number of people who helped me along in this process, and without their support, I could not have accomplished it. First and foremost, my utmost appreciation goes to my advisor, Gaines Foster. He has been the epitome of patience. I was not the most diligent advisee, but when I did stay on track with my writing, his insightful comments, suggestions, and revisions were invaluable. -

2020 ANNUAL REPORT PHOTO: PHOTO: STEVE BERRY QUALITY. INDEPENDENCE. IMPACT. PHOTO: PAUL PHOTO: MORIGI PAUL Rising to the Challenges in a Brookings President John R. Allen Year of Crisis etween the COVID-19 pandemic that upended society and ground the world to a halt, the national reckoning with Brace in the United States, and an intensely divisive election season, 2020 was a year unlike any other in recent memory. The pandemic has had a large-scale, catastrophic impact: unspeakable loss of life, economic turmoil, and unprecedented disruptions in how we live and work, educate and care for our children, and interact as a society. The virus and its many effects hit our com- munities of color especially hard, and the chaotic election season introduced additional challenges to an effective response. In the over 100-year history of Brookings, the nation has seen some difficult times: the Great Depression, two world wars, 9/11, and the financial crisis, to name a few. The COVID-19 pandemic is the first to force Brookings employees from campus for many months. These extraordinary measures, which prioritized the health and safety of our community, enabled Brookings to protect our staff and maintain our unwavering commitment to producing a high volume of real-time, thoughtful analysis and practical policy recommendations. With major developments unfolding at a remarkable pace, Brookings experts continued to bring rigorous, non-partisan research grounded in facts to immediate problems without losing sight of the enduring issues that need attention. 1 PHOTO: COURTESY OF PHOTO: COURTESY SUZANNE NORA JOHNSON PHOTO: BRIAN STANTON Suzanne Nora Johnson Glenn H. -
