Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Religion of Abraham Lincoln: An Oration
Someone has said that A saint is a good man dead one hun dred years, cannonaded then but canonized now. It was the Galilean who said, A prophet is not without honor save in his own country. This is the history of all prophets: Stones have been their bed and bread. Lincoln was no exception to the rule. In his day he was slandered and maligned, criticised and cartooned, assailed and assassinated.
