The Letter in Which Lincoln Debated the Morality of Slavery With Himself

Abraham Lincoln wrote countless notes to himself over the course of his adult life. As they were meant for his eyes only, he never signed or dated them – but they provide us with a fascinating insight to his private debates on the issues of the time. We take a look with Ron White.

Ron White is the author most recently of Lincoln in Private: What His Most Personal Reflections Tell Us About Our Greatest President. He's the bestselling author of several other books including American Ulysses and A. Lincoln. He has taught at UCLA, Colorado College, Whitworth University, and Princeton Theological Seminary. He has lectured at the White House, been interviewed on PBS NewsHour, and spoken about Lincoln all over the world. Visit him at ronaldcwhite.com.
