The Lincoln Memorial

Capitol Hill, Washington DC

A Preview

"The Lincoln Memorial. You know this building. Everyone knows this building. What almost nobody knows is this: While Lincoln was alive, America HATED him. The South, obviously. But the North hated him too. Harper's magazine compiled the insults in a single issue — Filthy Story-Teller, Despot, Liar, Thief, Buffoon, Usurper, Fiend, Butcher."
