About this listen
So said Abraham Lincoln as he contemplated the great issues of containing slavery and preserving the Union. Now, after another era of turbulent political chaos, including repudiation of traditional American values by many elites in politics and academia, we are embarked on a GREAT RESTORATION of respect for our Founding principles.
This book is written to show where we are, and whither we are tending, by explaining our current political controversies in context of where we have been at similar crisis points in the past:
Fragmentation --- Federalism --- Union (1783-1815)
Secession --- War --- Nationalism (1858-1867)
Wealth --- Depression --- Empire (1890-1900)
Wealth --- Depression --- Liberalism (1929-1934)
Chaos --- Humiliation --- Conservatism (1968-1980)
The Great Recession to the Great Restoration (Contemporary)
It is written as a distilled essence of American history, explained in the words of the people who lived it. It focuses narrowly but intensively on cycles of quantum change that channeled us into new political and economic directions. Now that the recent election has embarked us upon another turning point in our history, it may provide insights into our future direction by shining it through the prism of our past.
