Abraham Lincoln in the Post-Heroic Era: History and Memory in Late Twentieth-Century America
Barry Schwartz
Throughout the Great Depression and WWII, Lincoln was invoked as a reminder of America's strength and wisdom. This book reveals that those years represent the apogee of Lincoln's prestige. It documents the decline of Lincoln's public standing, asking throughout whether there is any path back from the post-heroic era.
