A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War

Most Americans consider Abraham Lincoln to be the greatest president in history. His legend as the Great Emancipator has grown to mythic proportions as hundreds of books, a national holiday, and a monument in Washington, D.C., extol his heroism and martyrdom. But what if most everything you knew about Lincoln were false? What if, instead of an American hero who sought to free the slaves, Lincoln were in fact a calculating politician who waged the bloodiest war in american history in order to build an empire that rivaled Great Britain's? In The Real Lincoln, author Thomas J. DiLorenzo uncovers a side of Lincoln not told in many history books and overshadowed by the immense Lincoln legend.

Through extensive research and meticulous documentation, DiLorenzo portrays the sixteenth president as a man who devoted his political career to revolutionizing the American form of government from one that was very limited in scope and highly decentralized—as the Founding Fathers intended—to a highly centralized, activist state. Standing in his way, however, was the South, with its independent states, its resistance to the national government, and its reliance on unfettered free trade. To accomplish his goals, Lincoln subverted the Constitution, trampled states' rights, and launched a devastating Civil War, whose wounds haunt us still. According to this provacative book, 600,000 American soldiers did not die for the honorable cause of ending slavery but for the dubious agenda of sacrificing the independence of the states to the supremacy of the federal government, which has been tightening its vise grip on our republic to this very day.

You will discover a side of Lincoln that you were probably never taught in school—a side that calls into question the very myths that surround him and helps explain the true origins of a bloody, and perhaps, unnecessary war.

"A devastating critique of America's most famous president."

— Joseph Sobran, commentator and nationally syndicated columnist

"Today's federal government is considerably at odds with that envisioned by the framers of the Constitution. Thomas J. DiLorenzo gives an account of How this come about in The Real Lincoln."

— Walter E. Williams, from the foreword

"A peacefully negotiated secession was the best way to handle all the problems facing Americans in 1860. A war of coercion was Lincoln's creation. It sometimes takes a century or more to bring an important historical event into perspective. This study does just that and leaves the reader asking, 'Why didn't we know this before?'"

— Donald Livingston, professor of philosophy, Emory University

"Professor DiLorenzo has penetrated to the very heart and core of American history with a laser beam of fact and analysis."

— Clyde Wilson, professor of history, University of South Carolina, and editor, The John C. Calhoun Papers

A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War

  很少给一本书这么低的分，因为选书很慎重，一般不会走眼去读自己不会喜欢的。这回算是湿了鞋了。第一，杨苡生于1919年，回忆录止于抗战结束。就算止于1949也不过30年，离书的题目100年差太大了。书中零星提到后70年的事十分有限。总之名不副实。第二，对上大学之前的回忆还有可圈点，到了西南联大之后的基本就是八卦集锦。本以为能看到一手珍贵史料，结果感觉像读了民国小报花边副刊。回忆者嘴上说爱国流亡，其实没干几样正事。不好好上学，重复很多的话是“我觉得挺有意思”“想着到哪去玩”。杨宪益戴乃迭后来何其坎坷，没提！一件正事没有。看来无论家、国如何，大小姐这是逍遥了一辈子，童心了一辈子。难怪长寿。本来对杨先生很敬重，还特意找了这部书来看。反正看完了，也算对得起给我书的人了。失望至极。

• 玫瑰的故事及婚姻四种

  作者：爱生活的刺猬 发布时间：2010-01-06 18:06:49

      久仰亦舒大名，遂从网上订了两本她比较有名的小说，一本《玫瑰的故事》，一本《喜宝》。两个晚上看完了《玫瑰的故事》，很不爽地把书摔到地上——恕我不敬，我只是觉得作者把爱情意淫了一把，毫无现实意义可言。

       小说的叙事方式倒是很独特，透过四个男人的视觉来讲述主人公黄玫瑰的三段爱情。主人公黄玫瑰有着让人招架不住的完美。她美若天仙，宛若特洛伊战争中美女海伦再世，又像是一千零一夜的女主角自画片中举步走来，每个见到她的男人都会对她一见钟情，拜倒在她的石榴裙下。她的美化作一种力量，所有的男人都心甘情愿地束手就擒，为她抛妻弃子，舍家抛业。另一方面，她又至情至性，在遇到心动的男人时，爱得义无反顾，完全变成爱情的动物。她具有很纯粹的女人韵味，温柔，可爱，娇嗔，高贵……（呵呵，所有的男同志都馋了吧）

      这朵玫瑰花旁边少不了小花小草作陪衬。围绕着她与三位白马王子假了吧叽的爱情故事，还写到了另外四种平凡且不完美的爱情——

  一、大哥-大嫂：男主外，女主内，生活和睦却不懂爱情。

  大哥黄振华专心事业，其他的都被视作附属品，包括爱情。虽然也很爱老婆苏更生，但并不懂爱情。大嫂苏更生，知书达理，善解人意，为了维持家庭的美满诸多迁就。

  二、周士辉-关芝芝：有感情，没爱情。

  生活的平淡，让他有了按部就班的心态。到了结婚年龄便找个平凡无奇的女子，结婚生子过日子。终于有一天，而立之年的周士辉遇到了16岁的玫瑰，被她惊艳的美貌摄去了灵魂。从此一发不可收拾，为了一厢情愿的爱情，老婆孩子全都不要了。

  三、傅家敏-咪咪：平淡的爱情。

  我始终觉得咪咪比黄玫瑰更值得人爱。她聪明，乐观，宽容，即便面对着自己的情敌黄玫瑰时，她也没有表现出女人的小气和嫉妒。但是傅家敏却说：与咪咪在一起时，没有太多的痛苦，但是也没有极端的快乐。靠，头号“溅男”。

  四、罗震中-薛小曼：两颗受过伤的心，依偎在一起。

  罗震中随生性散漫，但并非纨绔子弟，他从不滥交女朋友，直到在自家花园中偶遇黄玫瑰，一时被惊得“瞠口结舌，竟说不出一个字来”，他相信遇到了自己等了半辈子的梦中女郎。当他得知黄玫瑰就是父亲的新夫人，自己的后母时，顿感五雷轰顶，日日买醉疗伤。薛小曼是小说中精神比较独立的人（起码我这样认为），被男友摔掉后，她不像小说中一个个的痴情男人那样为情所伤不能自拔，她也会伤心，但之后还能回到自己以前的生活中去。她不像黄玫瑰那样为情而生，但作为一个女人，她活得很有尊严。也许两颗受过伤的心拥抱在一起时，彼此更懂得尊重和珍惜。

   不喜欢这部小说的理由如下：

       首先，小说过分强调了主人公黄玫瑰的美貌。也许作者是想借黄玫瑰这一形象揭示爱情的真谛，并为此赋予主人公冲破一切世俗束缚的勇气。对于主人公美貌的过分强调，使得所有与这三段爱情有关的人都显得急躁而肤浅。因此小说要强调的“爱情”主题也显得很粗俗，甚至是恶俗。

       其次，所有的爱情模式都是一见钟情。不管是黄玫瑰喜欢的庄国栋、傅家明、罗爵士，还是一厢情愿的周士辉、傅家敏、罗震中，这些男人都是在看到她的第一眼，便不可救药地坠入情网。爱情不应该是情感的热切交流吗？在小说中，我几乎看不到任何心与心的沟通，精神与精神的相互欣赏和支持。小说中，爱情的基础是美貌，而不是建立在理解，沟通，交流，和彼此欣赏之上。这也是我不喜欢它的主要原因。

       再次，小说中的男性角色在黄玫瑰那里是俯首贴耳，向她的美貌顶礼膜拜；回到自己的老婆和女友那里又显得那么强势，成为这些弱势女性喜怒哀乐的主宰者。所有的女性身上都没有完全的精神独立，或多或少地将自己的幸福和快乐的希望寄托在男性身上。所有的失意女性都因为男人伤心不已，看不到任何的，作为个体的人，而昂扬着的生命力。这让我相信，作者的思想中还残留着浓重的男尊女卑的封建思想。
