More about the book
The climax of this biography reveals how a significant misstep by slavery advocates inadvertently propels Lincoln toward the presidency. Initially perceived as a Southern triumph, the Kansas-Nebraska Act ignites Northern outrage, with Lincoln playing a crucial role in galvanizing this response. As he evolves from an ambitious westerner to a determined leader, his commitment to the American dream distinguishes him from his Republican rivals, ultimately leading to his nomination in 1860. This volume concludes a century's most comprehensive exploration of Lincoln's pre-presidential life.
