LINCOLN AND RACE

“With lawyerly precision, Richard Striner mines the speeches and writing of our sixteenth president to make a compelling case for a President Lincoln who, contrary to contemporary belief, had a long and abiding commitment not just to the end of slavery but also to equality before the law for all men, whatever the color of their skin.”


—pre-publication endorsement by Clay Risen, staff editor at the New York Times.


“Striner’s impressive exercise in decoding Lincoln’s rhetoric takes us as far as one can go in discovering the Great Emancipator’s bedrock opinion.”

—pre-publication endorsement by Alonzo Hamby, author of Liberalism and Its Challengers. 

(Southern Illinois University Press, 2012)
