Was he a product of his frontier background or did he transcend it? Was he a white supremacist as many black and white scholars still contend? Did the Emancipation Proclamation really free any blacks? Was Lincoln forgiving and tenderhearted about reconstructing the conquered South? Was there a conspiracy on the part of Edwin M. Stanton and other 'radicals' in government to assassinate Lincoln at the War's end? Finally, how does the historical Lincoln compare in significance with the mythical man, still so celebrated in song, film and story?' 0.55
