Please join the Friends of the Goodnow Library for an afternoon with author Ed Achorn on Sunday, April 6, 2025, at 3 PM at the Sudbury Grange, 326 Concord Road, Sudbury. The program is free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served.
Author Ed Achorn will discuss his book, The Lincoln Miracle, the vivid behind the scenes story of perhaps the most consequential political moment in American history —Abraham Lincoln’s history-changing nomination to lead the Republican Party in the 1860 presidential election.
An extremely tense political drama unfolding over six days, The Lincoln Miracle explores the genius of Lincoln’s quiet strategy, the vicious partisanship tearing America apart, the fierce battles raging over racism and slavery, and booming Chicago as a symbol of modernization transforming the nation.
This program is made possible by a generous bequest by Stella and Frank Ricciardi to the Friends of the Goodnow Library. In case of inclement weather, please check updates at https://www.friendsofgoodnow.org.
