Abraham Lincoln - The Southern View
by Lochlainn Seabrook
Most of what we know about Lincoln today has been invented by Northern folklorists, many who were, and are, enemies of the South. In fact, nearly every one of the 16,000 books that have been penned about Lincoln are by Northern writers and have been published by Northern publishers. Can we honestly expect to get a true and unbiased picture of who Lincoln really was from such works? Seabrook’s new 600-page book on Lincoln - not an anti-Lincoln work, but a pro-truth one - addresses this problem by looking at the president from the South’s point of view.

And most of what is presented about the confederacy and its leaders is invented by Southern ones.

From the man who gave us "Nathan Bedford Forrest: Southern Hero, American Patriot"? I'm sure it's completely unbiased. </sarcasm>
