I didn't know Abraham Lincoln faced 3 Democratic opponents in 1860. I didn't know the Republican Party was so young then either. I did know that Southern Democrat slave owners controlled most of the congress leading up to the civil war either. Great research, great historical backdrops for this series of books. Corrie goes through a lot, gets her heartbroken, becomes well known all the way to President Lincoln's invitation in the final chapter. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
The dawning of 1860 brings rising tensions between the North and South that threaten to escalate into full-scale war. Corrie Belle Hollister finds herself thrust into the political arena with her new reputation as "California's woman reporter." Handsome political aide Cal Burton approaches Corrie to convince her that Lincoln--even the nation itself--depends upon the influence she can wield through her writing and speaking. Corrie is resolute in her belief that slavery is wrong, and that she should do what she can to help Lincoln get elected, but mounting conflict within the Hollister family makes her realize that taking a stand sometimes goes deeper than drawing a political line.
