Book Review: "Abraham Lincoln and a New Birth of Freedom: The Union an Slavery in the Diplomacy of the Civil War".
This 5-page piece is a book review of Abraham Lincoln and a New Birth of Freedom by Howard Jones. After giving an overview of the author's background, the writer of this piece then launches into an analysis of the book, giving its thesis, which is that Lincoln had to struggle with both domestic and foreign policy in the Civil War. The reviewer believes the book is a strong work, particularly in the way it focuses on foreign policy in order to demonstrate how Lincoln was forced to issue the Emancipation Proclamation not only to free the slaves but to prevent foreign intervention (by the French and British) on behalf of the South. The reviewer applauds Jones' treatment of this little-known aspect of the Civil War, which allows the work to be fresh and informative, providing new light on a topic which has been covered heavily by historians. 5 pgs.
