In a lively and engaging style, Phillips bases his analysis on fresh, thorough, and exhaustive research.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"Don Phillips has done it again . . . bringing Lincoln's brilliant leadership to life. Lincoln's brilliance is as relevant today as it was a century and half ago." -- George Bodenheimer, former president, ESPN, and author of <i>Every Town Is a Sports Town</i> <p/><b>How can President Lincoln's wisdom be applied to the most pressing conflicts of modern-day America?</b> <p/> With a characteristically fresh and perceptive reading of Abraham Lincoln's own writings and speeches, best-selling author Donald T. Phillips reveals how America's sixteenth president handled many of the same national dilemmas we face today. Looking to Lincoln's exemplary leadership of a fractured nation, Phillips offers a deeply relevant analysis of how Lincoln's example could help forge solutions to the many issues and divisions challenging our country now. <p/> "[An] intelligent and often moving look at one of the nation's greatest presidents . . . Using his extensive knowledge of Lincoln, Phillips makes convincing cases throughout for what the nineteenth-century statesman's opinion would be on a wide array of issues faced by the twenty-first-century United States, including climate change, torture, immigration, and equal pay for women. For readers who find present-day politics almost too much to contemplate, Phillips's closing vision of Lincoln witnessing the 'current state of affairs' will be especially poignant and bittersweet." <i>-- Publishers Weekly</i><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>DONALD T. PHILLIPS is known for his best-selling trilogy: <i>Lincoln on Leadership, The Founding Fathers on Leadership, </i> and <i>Martin Luther King, Jr. on Leadership. </i>He has coauthored bestsellers with Phil Mickelson, coach Mike Krzyzewski, Cal Ripken, Jr., and others. <br>
