Based on deep consultation of seldom-examined primary sources, this third volume in Richard Lawrence Miller’s massive Lincoln biography follows Lincoln’s long effort to win a seat in Congress, his activity there, and his return to Illinois—chastened by his Washington experience. Topics include: Lincoln’s anti-slavery efforts in Congress; the popularity of his stance against the Mexican War (which, contrary to common belief, didn’t significantly harm his political reputation); his support of Zachary Taylor’s presidential campaign and his subsequent efforts to win a patronage job from the Taylor White House; his political activities after returning to Illinois; and his generally happy home life with Mary and his sons. Throughout the work, a new portrait emerges of Lincoln as a canny politician, making his own luck by striking swiftly and strongly when opportunities arose.

At this time of writing, The Audiobook Lincoln and His World: Volume 3, The Rise to National Prominence, 1843–1853 has garnered 8 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars.

Because we now recognize Abraham Lincoln as an almost majestic president, we tend to forget that he emerged from obscurity in rural Illinois. This volume recounts his single term as a Congressman, where Lincoln spoke out firmly against the expansionist war with Mexico. Rather disillusioned with Washington, Lincoln returned home to a quiet life as an attorney, but he continued to read widely, to study contemporary politics, and to enjoy his family life in less stressful conditions. This volume and the other three belong in all public, college and university libraries in this country.
