　　A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an UnnecessaryWar

  Most Americans consider Abraham Lincoln to be the greatestpresident in history. His legend as the Great Emancipator has grownto mythic proportions as hundreds of books, a national holiday, anda monument in Washington, D.C., extol his heroism and martyrdom.But what if most everything you knew about Lincoln were false? Whatif, instead of an American hero who sought to free the slaves,Lincoln were in fact a calculating politician who waged thebloodiest war in american history in order to build an empire thatrivaled Great Britain's? In The Real Lincoln, author Thomas J.DiLorenzo uncovers a side of Lincoln not told in many history booksand overshadowed by the immense Lincoln legend.

  Through extensive research and meticulous documentation,DiLorenzo portrays the sixteenth president as a man who devoted hispolitical career to revolutionizing the American form of governmentfrom one that was very limited in scope and highly decentralized—asthe Founding Fathers intended—to a highly centralized, activiststate. Standing in his way, however, was the South, with itsindependent states, its resistance to the national government, andits reliance on unfettered free trade. To accomplish his goals,Lincoln subverted the Constitution, trampled states' rights, andlaunched a devastating Civil War, whose wounds haunt us still.According to this provacative book, 600,000 American soldiers didnot die for the honorable cause of ending slavery but for thedubious agenda of sacrificing the independence of the states to thesupremacy of the federal government, which has been tightening itsvise grip on our republic to this very day.

  You will discover a side of Lincoln that you were probably nevertaught in school—a side that calls into question the very mythsthat surround him and helps explain the true origins of a bloody,and perhaps, unnecessary war.

  "A devastating critique of America's most famouspresident."

  —Joseph Sobran, commentator and nationally syndicatedcolumnist

  "Today's federal government is considerably at odds with thatenvisioned by the framers of the Constitution. Thomas J. DiLorenzogives an account of How this come about in The Real Lincoln."

  —Walter E. Williams, from the foreword

  "A peacefully negotiated secession was the best way to handle allthe problems facing Americans in 1860. A war of coercion wasLincoln's creation. It sometimes takes a century or more to bringan important historical event into perspective. This study doesjust that and leaves the reader asking, 'Why didn't we know thisbefore?'"

  —Donald Livingston, professor of philosophy, EmoryUniversity

  "Professor DiLorenzo has penetrated to the very heart and core ofAmerican history with a laser beam of fact and analysis."

  —Clyde Wilson, professor of history, University of SouthCarolina, and editor, The John C. Calhoun Papers
