Episode 522: Lincoln

James has been writing for alternative media since 1986 when he began contributing to The New American magazine. He is the author of eight books, the subjects of which range from COVID-19 to political history to creationism.

James Perloff dismantles that story in his new book, thanks to the digitization of handwritten 19th century documents, and with help from two intrepid predecessors—one alive, the other dead for more than 60 years. Readers may be surprised at how much 1860s America resembled today’s America.
