Description:

1981 University of Chicago Press trade paperback, David Herbert Donald (Lincoln Reconsidered: Essays on the Civil War Era). In this brilliant biography-a Pulitzer Prize-winning national bestseller-David Herbert Donald, Harvard professor emeritus, traces Sumner's life as the nation careens toward civil war. In a period when senators often exercised more influence than presidents, Senator Charles Sumner was one of the most powerful forces in the American government and remains one of the most controversial figures in American history. His uncompromising moral standards made him a lightning rod in an era fraught with conflict. - Amazon
