{"product_id":"9781723538360","title":"Three Riddles Around Lincoln : Race, Emancipation, And Colonization","description":"This short work pursues solutions to three riddles. The first riddle concerns whether Abraham Lincoln was in any sense a racist. The second riddle queries what Lincoln's highest priority was during his presidency. Some historians have argued that he cared most about saving the Union. Others have made the case that ending slavery was his main motive. Might both conclusions be wide of the mark? The third riddle arises from two policies that have appeared contradictory to some historians. On the one hand, by publicly supporting black suffrage, Lincoln moved toward a united multiracial future for the U.S. At the same time, however, he explored colonization proposals he thought might enable large numbers of African Americans to leave the U.S. How is the seeming contradiction to be understood?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eEdward Udell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eCreatespace Independent Publishing Platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eSep 27, 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e92 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1723538361\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781723538360\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49202019303729,"sku":"9781723538360","price":11.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781723538360__38095_7308fa4b-72aa-42cd-838d-8c843bf12c62.jpg?v=1716891094","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781723538360","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
