Reviews
"Using Abraham Lincoln's words and those of his fellow lawyers, Jonathan W. White presents a tightly woven story of Lincoln's rise in the law and politics during his 24 year practice. What comes through is Lincoln's discipline and work ethic, empathy for his clients, the succinctness of his pleadings foreshadowing his great writing skills, and his great speaking ability. This short primer should be required reading in every law school in America." - Frank J. Williams, retired Chief Justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court and founding Chair of the Lincoln Forum
