{"product_id":"forced-into-glory-abraham-lincolns-white-dream","title":"Forced into Glory: Abraham Lincoln's White Dream","description":"Beginning with the argument that the Emancipation Proclamation did not actually free African American slaves, this dissenting view of Lincoln's greatness surveys the president's policies, speeches, and private utterances and concludes that he had little real interest in abolition. Pointing to Lincoln's support for the fugitive slave laws, his friendship with slave-owning senator Henry Clay, and conversations in which he entertained the idea of deporting slaves in order to create an all-white nation, the book, concludes that the president was a racist at heart—and that the tragedies of Reconstruction and the Jim Crow era were the legacy of his shallow moral vision.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0874850851\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.0874850851.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bennett Jr., Lerone\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
