An enlightening “mental biography” of Lincoln, Allen Guelzo’s peerless account of America’s most celebrated president explores the function of concepts in Lincoln’s life, treating him as a severe thinker deeply concerned within the nineteenth-century debates over politics, faith, and tradition. Written with ardour and dramatic influence, Guelzo’s masterful research affords a revealing new perspective on a person whose life was in some ways a paradox.
Abraham Lincoln: Redeemer President, a publication with a unique legacy since 1999, has received numerous accolades, including the prestigious 2000 Lincoln Prize. Journalist Richard N. Ostling noted that while there has been much written about Lincoln's beliefs, Guelzo's exceptional account delves even deeper into the subject.
