Sobre este artículo
From the back DJ cover: "With 272 words, Lincoln changed the effective meaning of the Constitution, introduced a new style of public rhetoric, and inspired Garry Wills to a uniquely thorough and fascinating analysis of the text and context. Seldom have so few words excited such scholarship, penetrating analysis, and brilliant explication." - Governor Mario Cuomo

Sinopsis
The power of words has rarely been given a more compelling demonstration than in the Gettysburg Address. By examining both the address and Lincoln in their historical moment and cultural frame, Wills breathes new life into the words and reveals much about a president so mythologized but often misunderstood.
