Lincoln's rail-splitter : ISBN: 0252026497 OCLC: 45247219 University of Illinois Press, Urbana : ©2001. "Richard James Oglesby is best known for introducing the rail-splitter image into Abraham Lincoln's successful presidential campaign of 1860, and in many ways his career ran parallel to Honest Abe's. This biography of the three-time governor of Illinois offers the first detailed view of a key figure in the great changes that swept Illinois and the country from the Jacksonian era through the Gilded Age." |
