Guelzo on Lincoln


Allen C. Guelzo is on a roll. I'm delighted to see he's appearing regularly in the Claremont Review of Books. Having produced a nuanced review of William Freehling's Roads to Disunion Vols. I and II in the Spring issue (see my last post), he has now come out, in the Summer issue, with an enthusiastic and mouth-watering review of a book I hadn't even heard of until now, Thomas L. Krannawitter's Vindicating Lincoln: Defending the Politics of Our Greatest President.

Professor Guelzo's review, Washing Mud from Marble, is well worth a read. You may get thirsty.

Thanks to Scott Johnson at Powerline for the lead.
