Abstract
- This paper is a response by Orville Vernon Burton, author of The Age of Lincoln, to three insightful scholars who analyzed the book at the recent meeting of the Southern Intellectual History Circle. Burton gives an overview of the book, in which Abraham Lincoln is the fulcrum around whom ideas and controversies swirled in the nineteenth century. It then proceeds to clarify points raised by the three critiques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
