Our Secret Constitution: How Lincoln Redefined American Democracy
Fletcher, George P. (Cardozo Professor of Jurisprudence, Cardozo Professor of Jurisprudence, Columbia University School of Law)
In this perspective-altering book, Fletcher makes a revolutionary argument that America emerged from the Civil War with a second Constitution radically different from the first. This new Constitution--articulated in the Gettysburg Address and enacted in the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments--reinvented the United States.
