<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The Problem with Lincoln</b> <p/>Abraham Lincoln was widely and deeply unpopular during his presidency. And for good reason. <p/>He overturned our original constitutional order, violated the rights of Americans both North and South, massively inflated the federal government, and plunged the nation into a wholly unnecessary war. Why? <i>Not </i>to free the slaves, as his hagiographers would have you believe, but out of personal ambition, greed for power, and, incidentally, to enrich the railroad interests that supported his political career. <p/>Court historians have turned King Lincoln into a secular saint, but what did Abraham Lincoln's contemporaries know that has been forgotten or covered up? Bestselling author Thomas J. DiLorenzo debunks the pious myths to reveal the <i>real</i> Lincoln. <p/>In <i>The Problem with Lincoln</i>, you'll learn: <br> <ul> <li>Why Lincoln was willing to accept a constitutional amendment guaranteeing slavery <i>forever</i></li> <li>Why no American in 1861, Northerner <i>or </i>Southerner, believed that Lincoln had invaded the South to emancipate the slaves</li> <li>Why secession doesn't fit the Constitution's definition of treason--but Lincoln's war on the South does</li> <li>Lincoln's greatest failure: not ending slavery peacefully, as the rest of the world managed to do</li> </ul> <br>If you want the unvarnished truth about our sixteenth president, read <i>The Problem with Lincoln</i>.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dr. Thomas J. DiLorenzo</b> is a senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute and a retired economics professor, having taught university economics for forty-one years.
