Why did Abraham Lincoln approach the issue of emancipation proclamation cautiously?
He didn't especially.
He wanted to issue it in July 1862, when Lee was on a winning streak, and the British were close to granting recognition to the Confederacy. This would be his means of heading them off, because they could not aid the South after that, without looking pro-slavery themselves.
But his cabinet told him that it would look like a desperate measure, and he would have to wait for a Union victory. This came (unexpectedly) in September, and then Lincoln promptly issued his Proclamation.
