商品簡介
Fornieri (political science, Rochester Institute of Technology) sheds new light on how the Great Emancipator's personal trust in God shaped his vision for America, and how his "biblical republicanism" provided him with a moral justification for difficult political choices. Fornieri's scholarly study based on his doctoral dissertation written in 1996 notes the sincerity of Lincoln's belief, the remarkable consistency between his public and private religious views, and his comprehensive and compelling interpretation of political order founded upon American democratic and religious traditions.
