TENNESSEE SUMMER INSTITUTE

Lincoln Reconsidered:
His Legend and Legacy



Join us for an intensive study of the legend that surrounds the life and legacy of the sixteenth president of the United States of America. Discover why understanding the "Lincoln Myth" is the key to understanding why our present federal government is so different from that established by the founding fathers. Learn about the morality and legality of the Northern invasion of the Southern states, and what Lincoln's conception of the American Union was. Find out why there is so much misinformation about Lincoln today.

Hopefully people will realize he is not as good as American history makes him out to be.

I have had the honor of sharing a stage with this man and he is truly a scholar in every sense of the word. If anyone gets a chance to attend I highly suggest trying to get a few minutes along to talk with him and I also highly suggest purchasing some of his books before hand as he is always very happy to sign.
