Title: Less a Thesis Than a Lawyer's Brief
Review: Dilorenzo has so many axes to grind he should take up railsplitting. As history the book is a joke: anyone who wants to learn about the real Lincoln should read David Donald's biography. For southern apologists (who can't abide the thought that the CSA was created to protect slavery) and fans of "man bites dog" wacko theories, though, it's not bad.
