About Lincoln in New England

How did a frontier lawyer from Illinois charm the intellectual elite of the American Northeast right before winning the presidency? In Lincoln in New England, historian David J. Kent investigates Abraham Lincoln’s strategic visits to Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire in 1848 and 1860. The narrative tracks how Lincoln adapted his stump speeches to resonate with anti-slavery Whigs and nascent Republicans, honing arguments that later defined his national campaign. Kent draws upon local newspaper archives, personal letters, and event logs to recreate Lincoln’s itinerary. Reading this PDF version provides history buffs with a fresh perspective on a pivotal political transformation.
