The Fate of Liberty: Abraham Lincoln and Civil Liberties Paperback - 1992
by Mark E. Neely
If Lincoln was known as the Great Emancipator, he was also the only president to suspend the writ of habeas corpus. Indeed, Lincoln's record on the Constitution and individual rights has fueled a century of debate, and he has even been viewed as a dictator. Now, the Director of the Lincoln Museum wades into this controversy to set the record straight in this Pulitzer Prize-winning work.
First line
As president-elect, Abraham Lincoln faced the secession of several states from the Union he was soon supposed to govern.
