Today Stephen A. Douglas is mostly remembered as the man who debated Abraham Lincoln in the Lincoln-Douglas debates during the Senate election in 1858, but when this biography of Douglas was written ahead of the 1860 presidential election, Douglas was still arguably the most prominent politician in America. Like most campaign literature, this is a glowing account of Douglas' life and work, and something most people today would be unfamiliar with. It's a particularly interesting read for anyone interested in Lincoln, the Civil War, the issue of slavery, and those who want to better understand the mindset of 19th century Americans.
