There is much to learn from Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States of America, as a leader who presided over a divided nation.
Lincoln is sometimes seen as the greatest American presidenta distant iconor as a politician who was more motivated by calculation than by conviction. Lincoln is at once recognizable and enigmatic. This insightful new portrait reveals a very human Lincoln to usa flawed man whose moral antislavery commitment, vital to the history of justice in America, began as he grew up in a Baptist community that opposed slavery; who insisted that slavery was a moral evil; and who sought, as he put it, to do right as God gave him to see the right.
This book chronicles Lincoln's life, beginning with his frontier birth in Kentucky in 1809, through his leadership throughout the Civil War, and ending with his sad death in 1865: his ascent, his political failures, and his unwavering belief that slavery must end. Lincoln's narrative serves as an example of how politics works in a democracy, racism's origins and persistence, and the power of conscience to influence events in a country that was influenced by the bravery of the era's slaves and by the heroic testimony of Black Americans.
