The Abraham Lincoln Myth is a book that challenges the traditional narrative surrounding the life and legacy of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. Written by Bramantip and Bocardo, the book seeks to debunk what the authors see as a mythologized version of Lincoln that has been perpetuated in American culture and history.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Lincoln's life and career. The authors examine Lincoln's childhood, his early political career, his presidency, and his legacy, offering a critical perspective on each of these topics.Throughout the book, Bramantip and Bocardo argue that Lincoln has been unfairly glorified as a hero and savior of the United States. They suggest that many of the accomplishments attributed to Lincoln were actually the result of broader social and political movements, and that Lincoln himself was often more concerned with maintaining his own power and influence than with advancing the causes of justice and equality.Despite its critical stance, The Abraham Lincoln Myth is not simply a polemic against Lincoln or his legacy. The authors offer a nuanced and well-researched analysis of the historical record, drawing on a wide range of sources to support their arguments. They also offer suggestions for how a more accurate and nuanced understanding of Lincoln might shape our understanding of American history and politics more broadly.Overall, The Abraham Lincoln Myth is a thought-provoking and challenging book that offers a fresh perspective on one of the most iconic figures in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
