Historian Harold Holzer wrote in book, "Lincoln: Seen and Unseen" President Lincoln's handling of the proclamation was curiously understated: "Unaware of the power of image-making, Lincoln made the proclamation official in his private office, before just a few witnesses. He made no speech that day, met no delegation of African Americans, visited no slave family, saw no abolitionists, presided over no ceremony."
