Publisher's Summary:
Before Abraham Lincoln was a President he was a senator. He was also a very effective debater. In this famous speech as Senator he draws attention to wording in documents and decisions made by the court that could have forced the legalization of slavery on all states. Lincoln contended that the only way the nation would move forward is through a uniting of ideals, but what he observed was a fracturing and, perhaps, misleading series of decisions that left the American people confused and frustrated.
An enlightening perspective on what was going on in the country before frustration became action in the form of Civil War. Narrated by Glenn Hascall.
Members Reviews:
First get the facts right!
The very premise is ludicrously faulty. Abraham Lincoln WANTED to be a Senator, very much so. He ran twice, in 1954 and 1958, losing both times. The House Divided Speech kicked off the '58 campaign. But how much credibility can you place in an author who doesn't know the very basics of his subject- especially one so uncommonly famous.
