"Mario Cuomo, former governor of New York, returns to Lincoln's speeches and writings to find guidance for today's problems." "He shows how the big issues - equality, the role of government, war and peace, the responsibilities of the fortunate few - resonate in today's political climate as he brings to life the contemporary relevance of Lincoln's message for current hot-button subjects. Cuomo's analysis of Abraham Lincoln will inspire readers to believe that government can still be a force for greater good in American society."--BOOK JACKET.
