Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Six Historic Americans: Paine, Jefferson, Washington, Franklin, Lincoln, Grant; The Fathers and Saviors of Our Republic, Freethinkers
Almost immediately after the remains of America's most illustrious son were laid to rest at Springfield, one of his biographers put forward the claim that he was a devout believer in Christianity. The claim was promptly denied by the dead statesman's friends, but only to be renewed again, and again denied. And thus for a quarter of a century the question of Abra ham Lincoln's religious belief has been tossed like a battledoor from side to side.
