Tom has spent much of his career smashing the cult-like veneration of the American presidency that has been instilled in the American public, and this important and necessary work on the most venerated of all is a must for the independent thinker. -- Thomas Woods, New York Times bestselling author and senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute The Lincoln myth has been as baneful for republican self-government in America as it is fashionable. Any doubt about this will be challenged by reading this continually stimulating and revelatory study of the man most academic historians rank as America's greatest president. -- Donald W. Livingston, retired professor of philosophy, Emory University, and president of the Abbeville Institute The sacred Father Abraham was the central figure in the destruction of the Founding Fathers' constitutional republic and its conversion, by bloody means, into the unlimited government of crony capitalism and worldwide empire that we suffer under today. No scholar has been as perceptive and courageous as Professor Thomas DiLorenzo in bringing enlightenment about the real Lincoln to the public... -- Clyde N. Wilson, distinguished professor of history emeritus, University of South Carolina Millions of Americans genuflect to St. Abraham at his Parthenon in Washington, DC, each year. If they read this book, they would bring sledgehammers. -- Brion McClanahan, author of How Alexander Hamilton Screwed Up America
