RE: "Loathing Lincoln: An American Tradition From the Civil War to the Present"

I don't think there is any such page in the book per se.

I think that comment sums up Prof. Burlingame's personal opinion of many neo-Confederate and Confederate sympathizers today.

I have ordered the book and will wait to read it before discussing it here in more detail.

However, I do agree 100% with James McPherson's comments.Abraham Lincoln is the favorite whipping boy of Right and Left, Black and White, in order to promote causes, air grievances, assign blame and grind axes.
