Description
Abraham Lincoln's contemporaries saw him as a formidable opponent, and their criticism was fierce. This study offers a fresh perspective on Lincoln's life and presidency, exploring the obstacles he faced from those who opposed him. The era in which Lincoln lived was marked by intense violence and prejudice, with many of his critics coming from both sides of the Mason-Dixon line. Despite this, Lincoln rose to greatness through determination and resilience. This book provides a detailed account of Lincoln's life, including his rise to power and his struggles during the Civil War. Through extensive research and engaging storytelling, Larry Tagg sheds new light on Lincoln's humanity, revealing a complex individual who was both admired and reviled by those around him.
