Description
Based on the latest biographical research, LINCOLN'S BILLY presents a vulgar, tale-telling Abraham Lincoln unknown to most Americans and a radical, truth-telling William "Billy" Herndon who was more advanced -- and more contemporary -- than the president on key issues. After the assassination, Billy conflicts with Lincoln's family, other biographers, Christian fundamentalists, and corrupt Republican politicians as he struggles to write his unconventionally frank biography. Like the story of Lincoln's life and autobiographies by Franklin, Douglass, and Henry Adams, LINCOLN'S BILLY is a classic American tale of failure, resistance, persistence, and hard-won success.
